1:00:01
For two years, I had been suffering
from a severe pain...

1:00:05
...the result of a sciatic
nerve problem.

1:00:07
Lying beside me one night
was a Hollywood princess.

1:00:10
"Is it me?" she asked.
"The pain can't be that bad."

1:00:14
Wearing only a necklace,
she handed it to me.

1:00:17
Unscrewing the top, she whispered,
"Take a sniff, a sniff of life."

1:00:24
It was my first experience
into the world of white.

1:00:29
The seducer had been seduced.
1:00:48
I was working 18 hours a day, seven days
a week, with no plans to slow down.

1:00:52
With six pictures in development and
two in production, I felt invincible.

1:00:57
The first flick to hit was Marathon Man,
and it went straight through the roof.

1:01:02
- I salute you. To your health.
- Hear, hear!

1:01:07
I followed it up with Black Sunday.
Then Urban Cowboy. Popeye was on its way.

1:01:13
At the age of 50, I was on my way...
1:01:16
...to becoming the youngest recipient
of the Thalberg Award.

1:01:19
Goodbye '70s, hello '80s.
Here I come.

1:01:23
It's fair to say that you live
a lot of people's dream.

1:01:27
You're seen in magazines, dating models and
movie stars. Is it as good as it looks?

1:01:33
I most probably lead as much
of a Ionely life as any man you know.

1:01:37
I have no free time for myself. I have no way
of knowing myself as a person.

1:01:42
- I don't like myself as a person.
- Bob, I keep reading...

1:01:45
...I keep seeing pictures of you
with gorgeous women.

1:01:48
- Are they important in your life, women?
- Yes, women are very important in my life.

1:01:52
How? How important?
1:01:55
I haven't had the opportunity of really
taking advantage of life at all.

1:01:59
You see pictures of me
with beautiful women.
