          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.
