No one knows Hollywood better than the men and women behind the scenes, the directors and producers who turn ordinary people into heroes of the big screen by the lights, camera, and action of it all. Who better to tell a part of Hollywood's enduring tale than Herbert Coleman, a script supervisor, second unit director, director, and producer, who was active in Hollywood from 1926 through 1988. His memoir, beginning in the year 1916, provides vivid portraits of the many celebrated movie notables that he worked with such as Gary Cooper, Bing Crosby, Cecil B. DeMille, Alan Ladd, Steve McQueen, Erich von Stroheim, and Billy Wilder. He recounts the making of well-known productions like Carrie, Five Graves to Cairo, For Whom the Bell Tolls, and Roman Holiday. Above all, he discusses for the first time his long working relationship with Alfred Hitchcock, providing fresh insights into the making of Rear Window, The Trouble with Harry, Vertigo, North By Northwest and others. He also recounts many stories about Hollywood_stories that would have been lost were it not for this book. Not only a historical record of several important and dynamic periods in Hollywood, this autobiography reveals new information about Hitchcock and other legendary movie stars. For film students and film buffs, people interested in Hollywood, and Hitchcock fans. Illustrated with photos.
