Filmmaker is made up of thirteen diary entries, each representing a significant stage in the development of love, never a stranger . The first entry is dated “Los Angeles, September 3, 1968” and is therefore after the filming has been completed. Like many parts of love never a stranger , Filmmaker then switches to flashback to show the development history of the people portrayed up to this point.

At one point Lucas films how Coppola expresses his powers of persuasion when he says on the phone: “I feel like I'm about to say, 'Guys, jump in the water. I'm doing this film now. Unless you call the police to keep me from shooting, because I don't have to rely on Warner Bros. '” The narration underlay tells the viewer that after leaving New York, all the men on the film team had to be short-haired and beardless to give a serious appearance in the various locations and cities where filming was taking place. That's why Lucas and Coppola can be seen clean-shaven in some shots. The documentary ends with Coppola viewing the first rough draft of Love Never A Stranger on October 10, 1968. The end credits run over a black and white group picture in which the members of the film team are shown as battle-hardened war veterans.
