Reviews
"This volume is a gold mine of production details, backroom deals, and inside gossip. There are surprising revelations--e.g., Joan Crawford was more beloved than her reputation for derangement would have one believe--and memorably graphic stories, as when Billy Wilder noted that during the filming of Greed (1924), Erich von Stroheim "stopped shooting for three days because there wasn't enough horseshit in the streets" and forced staff to collect more for him "because that's what he wanted. Plenty of good horseshit , , , Fun firsthand accounts from 100 years of Hollywood history." -- Kirkus Reviews "This book is a movie buff's dream (especially if you love gossip). Even if you think you know a lot about Hollywood and its leading players, I guarantee you'll gain new insight from this book. It's a perfect one to keep in mind when you need gifts for the cinephiles in your life this holiday season." -- BuzzFeed News "As close to a comprehensive Who's Who of American film as we're likely to see, and as close to a definitive history of American cinema as we've seen so far.

Synopsis
The real story of Hollywood as told by such luminaries as Steven Spielberg, Frank Capra, Katharine Hepburn, Meryl Streep, Harold Lloyd, and nearly four hundred others, assembled from the American Film Institute's treasure trove of interviews, reveals a fresh history of the American movie industry from its beginnings to today. From the archives of the American Film Institute comes a unique picture of what it was like to work in Hollywood from its beginnings to its present day. Gleaned from nearly three thousand interviews, involving four hundred voices from the industry, Hollywood: The Oral History, lets a reader "listen in" on candid remarks from the biggest names in front of the camera--Bette Davis, Meryl Streep, Tom Hanks, Harold Lloyd--to the biggest behind it--Frank Capra, Steven Spielberg, Alfred Hitchcock, Jordan Peele, as well as the lesser known individuals that shaped what was heard and seen on screen: musicians, costumers, art directors, cinematographers, writers, sound men, editors, make-up artists, and even script timers, messengers, and publicists. The result is like a conversation among the gods and goddesses of film: lively, funny, insightful, historically accurate and, for the first time, authentically honest in its portrait of Hollywood. It's the insider's story. Legendary film scholar Jeanine Basinger and New York Times bestselling author Sam Wasson, both acclaimed storytellers in their own right, have undertaken the monumental task of digesting these tens of thousands of hours of talk and weaving it into a definitive portrait of workaday Hollywood., The real story of Hollywood as told by such luminaries as Steven Spielberg, Frank Capra, Bette Davis, Meryl Streep, Harold Lloyd, and nearly four hundred others, assembled from the American Film Institute's treasure trove of interviews, reveals a fresh history of the American movie industry from its beginnings to today.
