One of the pioneering spirits of the American car industry,
Walter P. Chrysler, established a successful car
company that would influence American culture and
driving habits far into the next century. Chrysler’s
climb to the top is a fascinating journey juxtaposed
against the raucous background of the Roaring ‘20’s
and the Great Depression of the 1930’s. The
Chrysler Corporation is an 85 year old saga packed
with dramatic stories. It is a chronicle of stunning
successes and sensational failures, brilliant engineering,
and calculated risks.
Although Walter P. Chrysler came from humble beginnings,
his love of machinery and his insistence on engineering
excellence allowed him to build one of the most iconic
car companies in America.
This documentary looks at the automotive industry through
World War II and into post-war America in the ‘50s;
the rise of NASCAR and the important role Chrysler
engineering played with the development of the hemi
engine.
“Walter P. Chrysler was responsible for making
an American generation.” - US President Barack
Obama.
