Student Academy Awards
RSSHave you ever wondered what Student Academy Award winners go on to do after they collect their trophy?
Well, in the case of Robert Zemeckis, he went on to make some of the most popular movies of all time including Back To The Future, Who Framed Roger Rabbit?, and Forrest Gump among countless others.
I’m sure you’ve seen those films plenty of times by now, but have you ever seen the film that won him a Student Academy Award and jumpstarted his career? Probably not, but let’s change that.
Press play on the video above to see Field of Honor, the dark comedy that earned Zemeckis a Special Jury Award in 1975.
(The conclusion of Field of Honor can be seen here.)
