Toen de iconische regisseur, acteur, criticus en historicus Peter Bogdanovich zijn entree maakte in de filmwereld, kreeg hij de kans om enkele van de grootste regisseurs uit de Gouden Eeuw van Hollywood te interviewen, waaronder Alfred Hitchcock, Orson Welles, Howard Hawks en John Ford. In het proces verzamelde hij een schat aan gesprekken met meesters van de cinema. Aan het einde van zijn eigen roemrijke carrière, en wat uiteindelijk het einde van zijn leven zou blijken te zijn, besloot Bogdanovich zijn carrière volledig rond te maken en begon hij hedendaagse regisseurs te interviewen over hun helden uit het verleden. Bogdanovich overleed voordat dit project kon worden voltooid. Zijn ex-vrouw Louise Stratten nam de rol van verteller en mede-presentator op zich, met drievoudig Academy Award-winnaar Guillermo del Toro als gastheer voor de laatste drie afleveringen.
