"This Newmarket Pictorial Moviebook captures the pace, excitement, and color of the movie experience - but provides greater detail about the historical and cultural context in which these amazing events took place. In accessible prose, it explores the psychological split in this country over New Deal policies; the uneasy relationship between corporate power and the arts; the forces of Communism and Fascism abroad and their influence on workers here; and the connection between a struggling Europe preparing for war and industrial opportunism in America."--Jacket.
