The Warner Brothers / by Freedland, Michael,1934-(CARDINAL)143084;
It all came true -- Desperate journey -- Hold everything -- The Midas touch -- The miracle-worker -- The jazz singer -- Too much, too soon -- Footlights parade -- Women are like that -- Hard to handle -- Thank your lucky stars -- The horn blows at midnight -- His brother's keeper -- Conflict -- Casablanca -- The great race -- Hollywood canteen -- Manpower -- Mission to Moscow -- The big sleep -- Deadline midnight -- I sell anything -- The millionaire -- Always keep 'em laughing -- The last tycoon."For two generations the brothers Warner personified Hollywood and the moguls who dictated the moviegoing habits of people the world over. The children of poor immigrants from Tsarist Russia grew up to become part of--and to shape--one of the wealthiest and most glamorous industries in the world. And Jack Warner came to personify the cliché of the self-made tycoon. Michael Freedland explores the history of this remarkable phenomenon, putting each of the four brothers into the context of the company and the background of the industry itself, and looks at their own personal relationships. It was the Warners who brought sound to the cinema with the world's first ever 'talkie'--The Jazz Singer--and having done that, launched first the musical film and then the era of the gangster picture. The Warner Brothers is also the story of the stars themselves, the actors and actresses who became internationally famous through Warner Bros' films: Edward G. Robinson, Errol Flynn, Bette Davis, Humphrey Bogart, James Cagney. There was even a dog: Rin Tin Tin. Michael Freedland has explored his subject by interviewing many of the people who worked in the film industry: the stars, choreographers, producers, directors. The result is a mine of anecdotal and first-hand information which strips away many of the myths and provides a rich and colorful portrait of a now-vanished era. 'This is not yet another studio story', says the author. 'Instead it is a story of the brothers themselves, of the men who made the movies, and in so doing made themselves.'"--Jacket.

The Warner brothers / by Yogerst, Chris,1983-author.(CARDINAL)413663; Uslan, Michael,1951-writer of afterword.(CARDINAL)146749;
"One of the oldest and most recognizable studios in Hollywood, Warner Bros. is considered a juggernaut of the entertainment industry. Since its formation in the early twentieth century, the studio has been a constant presence in cinema history, responsible for the creation of acclaimed films, blockbuster brands, and iconic superstars. These days, the studio is best known as a media conglomerate with a broad range of intellectual property, spanning movies, TV shows, and streaming content. Despite popular interest in the origins of this empire, the core of the Warner Bros. saga cannot be found in its commercial successes. It is the story of four brothers-Harry, Albert, Sam, and Jack-whose vision for Hollywood helped shape the world of entertainment as we know it. In The Warner Brothers, Chris Yogerst follows the siblings from their family's humble origins in Poland, through their young adulthood in the American Midwest, to the height of fame and fortune in Hollywood. With unwavering resolve, the brothers soldiered on against the backdrop of an America reeling from the aftereffects of domestic and global conflict. The Great Depression would not sink the brothers, who churned out competitive films that engaged audiences and kept their operations afloat--and even expanding. During World War II, they used their platform to push beyond the limits of the Production Code and create important films about real-world issues, openly criticizing radicalism and the evils of the Nazi regime. At every major cultural turning point in their lifetime, the Warners held a front-row seat. Paying close attention to the brothers' identities as cultural and economic outsiders, Yogerst chronicles how the Warners built a global filmmaking powerhouse. Equal parts family history and cinematic journey, The Warner Brothers is an empowering story of the American dream and the legacy four brothers left behind for generations of filmmakers and film lovers to come"--Includes bibliographical references and index.Chris Yogerst currently serves as an associate professor of communication in the Department of Arts and Humanities at the University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee.
