One of Hollywood's biggest players for almost 50 years, Darryl F. Zanuck presided over Twentieth Century-Fox during the studio' s most glorious era— with stars like Marilyn Monroe and Henry Fonda, directors like John Ford and Elia Kazan, and classics like How Green Was My Valley, Gentleman' s Agreement, and All about Eve. Drawing on Zanuck's own correspondence, author Rudy Behlmer presents a from-the-top look at the elements that went into making a feature film during the heyday of the Hollywood studio system. Full of secrets and surprises, this treasure trove of legend and lore— read by Zanuck' s son, Oscar-winning producer Richard D. Zanuck— is as entertaining as it is informative.
Rudy Behlmer (1926-2019) was an American film historian and writer whose books included Behind the Scenes, The Films of Errol Flynn, and Memo from David O. Selznick. Philip Dunne was an Oscar-nominated screenwriter whose credits included The Ghost and Mrs. Muir and How Green Was My Valley. Richard D. Zanuck (1934-2012) was an Academy Award-winning producer whose films included Jaws, The Verdict and Driving Miss Daisy.
