Description
"In June 1970, the biggest movie star in the world traveled to the Central Oregon Coast to film an epic novel about a defiant family of loggers written by a home grown counterculture hero.
The star was Paul Newman. The author Ken Kesey. What ensued was a wild working vacation between Hollywood and Oregonians involving beer, sex, scotch, loggers, beaches, and perhaps, a spectacularly vandalized pool table.
In Sometimes a Great Movie: Paul Newman, Ken Kesey and the Filming of the Great Oregon Novel, author Matt Love documents the legend of that magical summer and presents over a hundred stunning photographs."
