On the surface, it would seem that a sampling of memos--even those issued by a famous name--would be slow going. Not a chance, where this volume is concerned! For those with even the slightest interest in cinema history and major Hollywood players, this is a treat. Zanuck's memos not only provide zestful details on sets, stars, and technical productions but also offer an eloquent insight into the man and his methods. Behlmer's annotations are informative but not obtrusive; he lets the original material speak for itself. A few more entries in the all-too-brief chronological addendum on Zanuck's life would have enhanced the overall impact of this excellent work. This well-organized and aptly illustrated collection will appeal to circulating libraries with cinema collections.
