Here, assembled in one book, are eighty prize-winning movies from Hollywood's Golden Age. Famous films like "Gone With The Wind", "The Wizard of Oz", "Captains Courageous" and Spencer Tracy's interpretation of "Dr Jekyll and Mr Hyde" (all four directed by Victor Fleming, whose entire career is profiled), plus three Frank Capra masterpieces ("Lost Horizon", "It Happened One Night" and "You Can't Take It With You"), jostle alongside such lesser-known triumphs as Henry Hathaway's "Spawn of the North" and "Lives of a Bengal Lancer", Mervyn LeRoy's "Anthony Adverse" and Leo McCarey's "The Awful Truth". And what about Frank Borzage's once critically acclaimed "Bad Girl" and his highly regarded "Farewell to Arms"? In short, a book with so many favorites, so fascinatingly detailed, it's impossible to resist.
