A fascinating and convincing portrait... Thoroughly researched and engagingly written, The Moguls and the Dictators not only adds to our understanding of Hollywood in the 1930s and 1940s but also provides a valuable model for thinking about the interaction of business and cultural history., The Moguls and the Dictators is an abundantly detailed, highly informative book that serves both as a useful reference text and as an engaging story, and it is an original and valuable addition to interwar film scholarship., The research is impeccable and the footnotes are copious, and, despite the number of players involved, the story that Welky tells is nothing less than riveting. His rich anecdotal material transcends any potentially scholastic tone, and as a reference source it is worthy of being 'Kindled.', Lively study... What makes The Moguls and the Dictators engrossing is its ability to bring the period, its events and its main protagonists vividly to life., To his credit, Welky's 'Essay on Sources' alone makes the book worthwhile. But there is another approach -- that of a historian, not a cinema studies scholar or humanist from a related discipline -- that enables him to mine the studio archives and discover material that might elude another's eye., To his credit, Welky's 'Essay on Sources' alone makes the book worthwhile.

Synopsis
Welky's depth of research and focused, analytical approach will be appreciated by historians as well as film buffs., In this fresh look at moviemaking during the Great Depression, David Welky examines Hollywood's response to the rise of fascism and the beginning of the Second World War. Through innovative analysis of hundreds of movies--including The Dawn Patrol , Goodbye, Mr. Chips , and Sergeant York --Welky traces the shifting motivations and arguments of the film industry, politicians, and the public as they negotiated how--or whether--the silver screen should portray Nazism, depict conflict overseas, promote Americanism, and support President Roosevelt's rearmament efforts. Hollywood, Welky argues, was a primary player in the debate between interventionists and isolationists. These competing groups vied for influence and control over the message Hollywood offered the public--either scorning it for being too timid or attacking it for being too aggressive. The national debate reached a fever pitch in September 1941, when isolationists in the U.S. Senate staged widely publicized hearings, accusing the movie industry of warmongering. While prewar Hollywood often reflected the principles of the Roosevelt administration, it also sometimes outpaced the cautious and politically astute president. Providing Americans with the psychological preparation they needed to enter World War II, popular movies familiarized audiences with the wartime experience, offered definitions of patriotism and Americanism, and established the fundamental distinctions between democracy and dictatorship. Welky's depth of research and focused, analytical approach will be appreciated by historians as well as film buffs.
