Reseña del editor

What is is like to work in Hollywood, within the complexities of film-making, is studied in depth in the essays gathered in this book. Among the topics examined are: key workers and the system; women in the early film industry; labour relations; "teenagers, teenpics" and exploitation film-making; the conventions of the Tarzan films; and the effect of production needs and budgets upon the films themselves.
