About the Author:
Eddie Muller, who led readers on a guided tour of the seamier side of motion pictures in Grindhouse: The Forbidden World of Adults Only Cinema, now takes us on a spellbinding trip through treacherous terrain: Hollywood in the post-World War II years, when art, politics, scandal, style - and brilliant craftsmanship - produced a new approach to moviemaking, and a new type of cultural mythology.
