More Details
- Summary:
- Using Paramount Pictures as a case study, this program looks at the "factory system" perfected by major film studios in 1930s Hollywood. By the 1950s a new Hollywood emerged owned by huge corporations interested primarily in profit. Charlton Heston and Harrison Ford and others discuss the conflict between industry and artistry and the challenges facing studios today.
