R.G. Armstrong (1917 - 2012) was filmed in Padua, Italy during the Sam Peckinpah Film Festival on 18 - 24 Sept. 2000 and organized by Umberto Berlenghini. He also shot, with Michelangelo Dalto, the interviews for the documentary "Sam Peckinpah: Portrait" (2006). Directed by Berlenghini & Dalto.
In Italy the documentary had two releases: the first in December 2006 attached to the monthly film magazine CIAK, then a few years later as an extra on the DVD release of "The Osterman Weekend".
(From IMDb) 'Male friendship and loyalty till death. Drawing from the philosophy of Peckinpah's cinema, the film presents backstage images, movie trailers, TV commercials, sequences from his films, and comments by relatives, actors, and scholars.'
