Book Presentation:
The story of Samuel Goldwyn is as much the history of Hollywood and the motion picture business as it is the story of one man. Yet to many, the man who founded the studios that evolved into Paramount and MGM was simply a buffoon, better suited to coining malapropisms than for being a producer.
Arthur Marx shows us a Goldwyn who was a highly complex and puzzling individual. He supplies in abundance the famous Goldwynisms―and a good many stories printed here for the first time. Rich in anecdotal detail about both Goldwyn’s personal and his professional life, this biography is a testament to his role as both a perfectionist in art and a founder of one of America’s great industries.
