Produktinformationen zu „The Gang that Shot Up Hollywood (PDF)“
John Stanley, 33-year veteran entertainment writer for the San Francisco Chronicle, stalks the environs of Hollywood and San Francisco to profile male & female stars of yesteryear who blasted their way through movies and TV series with high-powered handguns, curvaceous, slinky bodies and other weapons of excessive destruction, all for decent box office. Savor four classic Clint Eastwood encounters: Two "Dirty Harry" moments with actor Clint and two Iwo Jima moments with director Clint. Stanley presents exclusive material and photos about Iwo surrounding the raising of the first small flag, and introduces you to fellow Chronicle employee Joe Rosenthal, who took the famous photo of the second flag-raising. Can hard-hitting martial arts star Chuck Norris survive three showdowns with Stanley? James Stewart survived two Stanley encounters: one about his hard-boiled Westerns, the other about his Hitchcock classics. Meet Robert and John Mitchum, ornery fighting brothers whom Stanley knew intimately, and learn the full truth behind Robert's 1948 arrest for marijuana use, never before revealed. Karl Malden faces Stanley in five showdowns on the streets of San Francisco. Sink into the world of film noir with "Czar of Noir" Eddie Muller and a warm swarm of femme fatales such as Jane Russell, Ida Lupino, Lauren Bacall, Barbara Stanwyck, Anne Francis, Evelyn Keyes, Marie Windsor, Carroll Baker and other undulating ladies, "the intellectual half." It's another noir moment on the set of Samuel Fuller's "Naked Kiss" when Stanley overhears a conversation that leads to the downfall of the popular cult director, whom Stanley profiles in depth from personal encounters. Then there's a grim Fisherman's Wharf showdown with "Virginian" star James Drury that still has Stanley spinning. Plus countless other moments with Hollywood icons, told with 740 photographs and 17 show biz caricatures. Text and imagery material that will shake up any motion picture lover
