Aroview: Fairly thorough look at the life of behind-the-scenes Hollywood legend Lew Wasserman, who built the MCA talent agency into a force to be reckoned with in the American film industry.

With an influence that spanned the mafia and government power brokers (he may have gotten Ronald Reagan his presidential nomination), the ever-dapper Wasserman was a feared man, even after his death, as the hedging interviews in this documentary testify to. Among those willing to talk are Jack Valenti, Michael Ovitz and Richard Zanuck.
