Frank Borzage: The Life and Films of a Hollywood Romantic - Paperback
$81.00
by Hervé Dumont (Author)
This work brings to readers of English a comprehensive and engaging treatment of one of America's greatest, if largely forgotten, film directors. Dumont's celebrated 1993 study, translated from the French by Jonathan Kaplansky, offers complete coverage of Borzage's entire career--the more than 100 films he made and the effect of those films on movie audiences, especially between 1920 and 1940.
Lavishly illustrated with 120 photographs, the book also contains a complete filmography, a chronological bibliography, and an index.
