The Encyclopedia of Hollywood Film Actors: From the Silent Era to 1965 (Applause Books)

The Encyclopedia of Hollywood Film Actors: From the Silent Era to 1965 (Applause Books)

For decades, Screen World has been the film professional's, as well as the film buff's, favorite and indispensable annual screen resource, full of all the necessary statistics and facts. Now Screen World editor Barry Monush has compiled another comprehensive work for every film lover's library.

In the first of two volumes, this book chronicles the careers of every significant film actor, from the earliest silent screen stars â€“ Chaplin, Pickford, Fairbanks â€“ to the mid-1960s, when the old studio and star systems came crashing down.

Each listing includes: a brief biography, photos from the famed Screen World archives, with many rare shots; vital statistics; a comprehensive filmography; and an informed, entertaining assessment of each actor's contributions â€“ good or bad!

In addition to every major player, Monush includes the legions of unjustly neglected troupers of yesteryear. The result is a rarity: an invaluable reference tool that's as much fun to read as a scandal sheet. It pulsates with all the scandal, glamour, oddity and glory that was the lifeblood of its subjects.
