Product Details:
The novel centers on the life of film executive Monroe Stahr, in Hollywood in the 1930s. Stahr is modelled on the life of film executive Irving Thalberg though only in ideas and ambitions not in actual life events. Robert De Niro plays Monroe Starr in a cool and detached manner and as Kazan pans around the Hollywood Dream Factory of the 1930s. Starr juggles several production deals with nervous actors and recalcitrant directors, staying afloat in the Hollywood corporate battlefields and secretly carring on a love affair with an even cooler and more detached English girl Kathleen Moore (Ingrid Boulting).
