Very entertaining, engaging inside Hollywood tale

For the student of film history, or the newcomer to the world of early Hollywood, this engrossing portrait provides plenty of memorable material. The filmmaker is the grandson of the movie's subject, and the honor of profiling the man is well-balanced with an editorial eye. The archival material is great, and this is well worth seeing.

Great Film for Movie History Buffs

Not only is this a really informative piece that is entertaining and thoughtful, it is made by someone personally connected to the subject. This comes through, and really involves us in the story of the documentary. Movie history buffs should definitely check this one out. September 3, 2001
