This autobiography from 1953 is a great read. Adolph Zuckor was a movie producer from around 1910 through the publication of this book.He ended up as the head of Paramount Studios. His tales of early movie production, and the stories of various movie stars make for an interesting read. It is an autobiography from the early 50's, so the book is told only from his view point. But, it doesn't matter because it is interesting to read these first hand stories from a bygone era. If you love movies and you would like to learn about the old studio star system, then this is the book for you.
Interesting, but less detailed than The House that Shadow’s Built. Rather self-serving, talks about how well he got on with everyone, and also talks about stuff he had nothing to do with, like Keystone. Liked Marguerite Clark a lot.
