Descrizione libro Paperback. Condizione: new. Paperback. A provocative, original, and richly entertaining group biography of the Jewish immigrants who were the moving forces behind the creation of America's motion picture industry. The names Harry Cohn, William Fox, Carl Laemmle, Louis B. Mayer, Jack and Harry Warner, and Adolph Zucker are giants in the history of contemporary Hollywood, outsiders who dared to invent their own vision of the American Dream. Even to this day, the American values defined largely by the movies of these emigres endure in American cinema and culture. Who these men were, how they came to dominate Hollywood, and what they gained and lost in the process is the exhilarating story of An Empire of Their Own. The story of a handful of Jewish immigrants to the US from eastern Europe who created the Hollywood film industry. These men, including William Fox and Harry Warner, are its founding fathers. Neal Gabler draws on a host of fascinating anecdotes which provide an insight into the movie capital of the world.
