Non-Fiction History
From Rin Tin Tin to Casablanca to Harry Potter, the Warner
Bros. story is the history of Hollywood. Eighty-five years
of screen icons, legendary films, and history-making
achievements are detailed in this comprehensive, photo-
filled treasure trove, fully authorized by the studio.
No production company has had more legendary films, stars,
or influence on the course of Hollywood than Warner Bros.
Among the superstars who worked for the studio are Bette
Davis, Humphrey Bogart, Lauren Bacall, Joan Crawford,
Marlon Brando, James Dean, and John Wayne. Filmmakers like
Martin Scorsese and Stanley Kubrick made history for the
studio, and it has been home to blockbuster franchises like
Superman, Batman, Lethal Weapon, and Harry Potter. Produced in conjunction with Warner Bros., this volume is
the ultimate guide to the greatest movie studio in history.
You Must Remember This: The Warner Bros. Story is also the
companion to a five part documentary in the PBS American
Masters series by author Richard Schickel that will
premiere at the Cannes Film Festival in the spring of 2008
and debut on PBS in the fall, to coincide with publication
of the book.
