Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. nach der Bestellung gedruckt Neuware - Printed after ordering - Of Mice and Men is one of the most haunting, passionate films in Hollywood history. Based on the tragic novella by John Steinbeck, it was a Best Picture Oscar nominee in 1939, 'Hollywood's Greatest Year,' and shattered taboos that film producers had never dared to challenge. Now, based on studio archives accessed for the first time in 80 years, the full story of this film is finally told: the censorship battles, the secret screen tests, the day-to-day shooting, and the controversial critical and popular response. The book also candidly examines the private lives of the film's cast - particularly its three brilliant stars, Burgess Meredith, Betty Field, and Lon Chaney, Jr. - and its production staff, headed by its indomitable director Lewis Milestone. Accompanied by over 110 illustrations, this book takes the reader into the heart and soul of one of the most powerful and beloved films of Cinema's Golden Age.
