Ammo for Shooting Clouds dives deep into John G. Avildsen's career before he exploded onto the scene with Rocky and The Karate Kid. It’s fascinating how the documentary captures the essence of his early work, with a tone that blends reverence and personal insight. The pacing feels almost reflective, letting you soak in the nuances of his lesser-known films. You get a blend of interviews, behind-the-scenes glimpses, and archival footage that really paints a picture of the man and his vision. What stands out is the exploration of themes like perseverance and the struggle against the odds, which would later define his more famous works. Definitely a unique look at a filmmaker often overshadowed by his later successes.
