By Thomas Schatz
University of Minnesota Press | 528 pages | 2010
ISBN 978-0-8166-7010-9| paperback | $24.95
Thomas Schatz recalls Hollywood's Golden Age from the 1920s until the
dawn of television in the late 1940s. Through detailed analysis of
major Hollywood moviemakers including Universal, Warner Bros., and
MGM, he reminds us of a time when studios had distinct personalities
and the relationship between contracts and creativity was not
mutually exclusive.
Thomas Schatz is professor of communication at the University of
Texas, Austin. He is the author of several books, including Hollywood
Genres and Boom and Bust: American Cinema in the 1940s.
