Electric Boogaloo, la loca historia de Cannon Films
Self - Actor
¿Qué tendrá la Cannon para inspirar no uno, sino dos documentales? La respuesta es fácil: cinefilia sin complejos, descaro y dos cerebros, Menahem Golam y Yoram Globus, más grandes que la vida.

A quick-drawing gunslinger, he first joins the conquerors. As time passes, however, it rapidly becomes apparent that he really sides with the townsfolk, and when the time is right, he leads them into a violent uprising.
