As one who only lately caught up with the whole films-about-film
discussion, I wanted to contribute to its last gasp. I noticed
that Henry's list apparently includes HOLLYWOOD BOULEVARD
(Paramount, 1936), but fails to mention the film it s director
was remaking, his own 1927 avant-garde short THE LIFE AND DEATH
OF 9413--A HOLLYWOOD EXTRA. Also of interest is the film whose
success inspired Paramount to ask for a "movies" story, THE
PREVIEW MURDER MYSTERY (Paramount, 1935), which takes place
entirely on the Paramount lot.

Disclaimer--Promoting the films of Robert Florey does not
represent official Library of Congress policy, only a personal
obsession.
