First Edition
Hardcover. Condition: Very Good. Dust Jacket Condition: Fair. First Edition. Today the motion picture business is in a precarious period of adjustment. Television films are keeping many actors and technicians busy, but Hollywood is making fewer theatrical pictures than ever before â" some of which are so costly their failure could bankrupt an entire studio. But there are hopeful prospects as well. In this brilliant book, Richard Dyer MacCann examines all the faces of an industry which is confusing, popular, depressing, exciting, logical and fantastic. Since the advent of transcontinental television in 1951, the domestic movie audience has been cut in half, and the world market has become a dominant factor in film-making. At the same time, in order to compete with foreign films at home, there has been a move toward so-called "adult" pictures, many of them made by "independent" producers. Fewer and bigger productions are the rule, and profound changes have occurred in the organization of the complex old-time studios which used to guide young stars in the development of their careers. In contemporary Hollywood, life is often suspended between the end of one production and the beginning of the next. Mr. MacCann examines the causes and effects of these transformations. "The four changes that have come in the wake of the television revolution," he says, "are actually four expanded freedoms â" freedom from censorship, freedom from centralized studio production, freedom from domination by the domestic box office, and freedom from the tyranny of the assembly line. Yet none of these freedoms, except possibly the last one, is a clear-cut advantage either for Hollywood or for society. Each new freedom carries with it new labors and new dangers, calling for courage, understanding, and a sense of obligation. If thoughtful people â" in Hollywood and outside â" can take a long, hard look at what has really happened, this alone will be a big step toward a better relationship between Hollywood and its new, wider world." The more personal aspects of life and work in Hollywood are illustrated by Mr. MacCann through interviews with producers, directors, writers, and such stars as Janet Leigh, Marion Brando, Joanne Woodward, James Dean, and Alec Guinness. His fresh analysis casts new and sometimes surprising light on the cinema â" an industry on which thousands of people depend for their living, a medium of communication to which millions look for entertainment. It is a cinema which Mr. MacCann understands as business and respects as art. RICHARD DYER MACCANN is probably the only man with a Ph.D. ever hired by a major newspaper to be a Hollywood correspondent. He studied political science at Kansas University and at Stanford, and wrote his doctoral dissertation at Harvard on the history of motion picture production by the U.S. Government. For nine years he wrote about films and their makers for The Christian Science Monitor, and from 1957 to 1962 he taught filmwriting and documentary film at the University of Southern California.Some tears to the dust jacket have been repaired.

Softcover. Condition: Good. Again Richard Dyer MacCann has brought his editorial skills to the task of presenting for the students and the general reader what movie making was like in the earliest days of America. This time he tells the stories of the lives, works, and fortunes of the most talented and prolific early American directors. Not only did they express themselves as artists, they also became popular, rich, and famous. Through autobiographical writings and the appraisals of contemporaries and more recent historians, Dr. MacCann provides the reader with a rich background for understanding how Thomas Ince, William S. Hart, D.W. Griffith, and Erich non Stroheim did their work. He also reveals some of the conflicts in critical views about them, past and present.Many teachers will agree that these hard-to-find selections are invaluable source materials to go along with more tradtional texts. From the latest scholarship on Edwin S. Porter and Alice Guy Blaché to the little-known "realist-manifesto" of Thomas Ince and the latest judgements on the value of Griffith's later works as art-the reader will find rewards and surprises here.Dr. MacCann's introductory essays also provide new ways of looking at the philosophy an dmotivations of these early creative titans. His view of Erich von Stroheim will cause some controversy among traditional supporters of that temperamental man, and his analysis of D.W. Griffiths's relationships with his associates, especially Lillian Gish, may give pause to pure auteurists.
