The Studio
Autor John Gregory Dunneen Limba Engleză Paperback – 31 mar 1998
Whether he is recounting a showdown between Fox's studio head and two suave shark-like agents, watching a producer's girlfriend steal a silver plate from a restaurant, or shielding his eyes against the glare of a Hollywood premiere where the guests include a chimp in a white tie and tails, Dunne captures his subject in all its showmanship, savvy, vulgarity, and hype. Not since F. Scott Fitzgerald and Nathanael West has anyone done Hollywood better.
"Reads as racily as a novel...(Dunne) has a novelist's ear for speech and eye for revealing detail...Anyone who has tiptoed along those corridors of power is bound to say that Dunne's impressionism rings true."--Los Angeles Times

Descriere
Based on his unlimited access to the inner workings of Twentieth Century Fox, Dunne's classic work of Hollywood reportage may still be the most minutely detailed and uproariously funny work of its kind. At once an unblinking critique and unstinting celebration, "The Studio" captures every nuance of the picture business's showmanship, savvy, vulgarity, and hype.
