Product Description: âIt is, in a sense, a prose Aeneid, written with so much economy and constraint that the reader is only aware at the end that he has been following the wanderings of a hero.â Thus did Andrew Nelson Lytle, in a 1934 New Republic review, capture the essence of CarÂoline Gordonâs novel inspired by the life of her father, a supreme hunter and fisherman...read more

This story of the San Francisco TenderÂloin and the 1906 earthquake centers on four strongly drawn characters played by four major stars. The lead, of course, is Clark Gable as Blackie Norton. The prototype for Gableâs role was Wilson Mizner, a gambler from the Barbary Coast and a close friend of Miss Loos. Mizner embodied the âimagination and braggadocioâ that Loos saw as characteristic of San Francisco. Gable is perfect. His Blackie Norton is a gallant rogue, witty, full of vitality. San Francisco is a lusty celebration of life. Jeanette MacDonald as Mary Blake is an innocent young beauty who enters Nortonâs iniquitous den and emerges unsullied, who in fact cleans up both den and denmaster. She is an opera singer forced to belt out bawdy songs in the Tenderloin. She triumphs, mostly through the support of Spencer Tracy, who plays Father Tim Mullin. Tracyâs Mullin is tough, full of life, big enough to love good more fiercely than he condemns evil. And evil in the screenplay is not really so bad. It is Jack Holt as slumlord Jack Burley, whose major crime is puniness of spirit. Like the previous books in the Screenplay Library seriesâRaymond Chandlerâs Blue Dahlia and F. Scott Fitzgeraldâs screenplay for Erich Maria Remarqueâs Three Comradesâthe script published here is the original version and includes all added scenes and reÂtakes. Its publication is intended for the general reader interested in the film as literature and for students of film and film writing.

Product Description: Much of the magic surrounding his legendary name had vanished by the time F. Scott Fitzgeraldâforty-one years old, deeply in debt, full of reÂmorse that âI had been only a mediocre caretaker of most things left in my hands, even of my talentââmounted a third assault on the money of HolÂlywood and, by writing this adaptation of Remarqueâs Three Comrades, proved that the writer, if not the man, had surÂvived the famed âcrack-up...read more
