Book Description Condition: Gut. 264 S.; zahlr. Illustr. (Fotografie / Film-Stills); 26 cm. Gutes Ex.; Umschlag berieben u. m. mit Läsuren; Einrisse. - Englisch. - Humphrey Bogart, Jimmy Cagney, George Raft, Edward G. Robinson: four of the greatest gangsters ever seen on the screen. Now, the immortal Bogie is gone, and there don't seem to be any more great roles for the others. But in the 1930s and 1940s, they talked tough, shot first, and asked questions later. Authors Raymond Lee and B. C. Van Hecke have re-created the screen world as it was in the days when the hoodlum was in his heyday-when Hollywood wasn't so concerned with toning down violence, and nobody had ever heard of X ratings and "redeeming social value." It was a fast-action world of bank robberies, gang murders, and shootouts with the police . . . and if you crossed the boss of your gang, you were marked for execution too. In Gangsters and Hoodlums there are nearly 350 photographs that bring back the world not only of those four great stars, but also of many of the other Hollywood luminaries: Lloyd Nolan, Sydney Greenstreet, Peter Lorre. Law breakers real and imaginary have been included: Paul Muni, Jason Robards, and Rod Steiger in their Al Capone roles; Susan Hay ward as Barbara Graham in I Want to Live; Paul Newman as Rocky Graziano; Marlon Brando in The Wild One; Jimmy Stewart as Carbine Williams.
