Talking Pictures by Sylvia Shorris
Producers, gaffers, camera operators, key grips, sandmen and scriptgirls - with a list of behind the scenes movie makers - this book presents a lively, first-hand view of Hollywood from the bottom up. The nearly 40 interviews collected here chronicle the Golden Age of Hollywood when major movie studios produced some of America's favourite films. By hearing first-hand about the machinations of Hollywood moguls like Louis B. Mayer and Darryl Zanuck, we learn how studios were run and how decisions about movies were made. From lesser known players we see how informal Hollywood was, how easy it was to get a job, how crucial a role nepotism played, and how careers were opened to craftsmen and con men.| SKU | Nicht verfügbar |
