In the 1960s, the whole of Hollywood has reached a bottleneck, when the mainstream film-making model relies on mature stars and safe-to-sell screenplays, the creation of a straight line and the industry calling for a break-in. In 1966, Evans decided to make use of his wealth in the clothing industry for film production. First of all, he bought the right-to-write of the current novel, the detective, and then hands it to the big screen. The New York Times, the last article to introduce Mr. Evans's radical production style, has successfully attracted the attention of the two big shareholders of the Paramon film company at that time. Paramount at that time was a "the ninth film studio" in the United States, The day was overstretched, and it was extremely necessary to have a new man like evans to put a hand in hand. The 34-year-old was appointed vice-president of the production of Paramon's film company, and the outside world gave Evans an evaluation of most of the following: "With no experience, with a good face and a top-top communication wrist,". But these challenges have failed to shake Mr. Evans's determination to reconstitute the industry with a new wave of movies. Paramount, the "godfather" and the trilogy of the "Godfather> trilogy" directed by numerous literary and literary youth and film-lovers, are the best of the textbook, but in the current year, the Godfather 1> can be fully presented in the best state, and the producer evans can't. when Other producers of Paramount, as well as projectors, were sceptical about the blockbuster, which was not in line with the mainstream viewing habits of the time and could affect box office receipts. But Evans, aware that these are short-sighted ideas, did not hesitate to exercise the privileges of the producer, cutting out the final 2 hours and 55 minutes of "godfather 1", earning Paramount real gold and silver, but also bringing a good reputation of "Paramount products, must be fine". In the 1960s and 1970s, by pushing projects such as Chinatown and godfather to the big screen, he was repeatedly nominated for an Oscar. Evans also helped resurrect. Paramon's film industry.
