520 "A celebration of cinema from the year 1939--a year film
critics and historians are virtually unanimous in
considering the greatest in the history of motion pictures
--this work is the perfect combination of film history,
artistic appreciation, historical insight, and gossip.
Profiling of six of the greatest films of the year--Gone
with the Wind, Stagecoach, Mr. Smith Goes to Washington,
The Hound of the Baskervilles, The Adventures of
Huckleberry Finn, and The Wizard of Oz--the book shows, in
detail, how these stories came into being and how long
they waited to find fame. It also describes the behind-the
-scenes story of each film: how the stories were adapted
to a film script; the writers, producers, directors,
actors, and technicians who made the film; how the film
was received by critics and the public; and the later
careers of the people who made the film, with commentary
on such legendary stars as Clark Gable, Jimmy Stewart,
John Wayne, and Judy Garland. A must-have book that no
movie fan should miss, this work captures 1930s Hollywood-
-an era which, in spite of being crass, commercial,
restrictive, and frequently dysfunctional, produced
immensely enjoyable films that are still watched with
pleasure today"--|cProvided by publisher.
