Title: A lot of endless rambling
Product review: I am a huge fan of the old Hollywood studio era but was pretty disappointed in this book. It's probably a good place to start for someone who hasn't done alot of previous reading or research. To me it was a bunch of babbling and Mr. Mordden kept repeating the same point over, and over, and over(albeit changing the characters)... It didn't offer me anything new so I skimmed thru the first couple chapters and struggled to finish it, but finally just put it back on the shelf.If you have an interest in the Hollywood studios, I would HIGHLY reccomend "The Glamour Factory" by Ronald Davis and "City of Nets" by Otto Friedrich, I found both of these very interesting - another great read is "Irving Thalberg: Boy Wonder" by Mark Vieira.
Would you say this review depicts the product in a flattering or unflattering light?
