Winner of two Best Director Oscars, George Stevens excelled in a range of genres, gave lustre to some of Hollywood's brightest stars and was revered by his peers. Yet his work has been largely neglected by critics and scholars. This career retrospective highlights Stevens' achievements, particularly in his sweeping "American Dream" trilogy.

"George Stevens could do anything," said veteran Hollywood producer Pandro S. Berman, "break your heart or make you laugh."
