Description
A classic look at Hollywood and the American film
industry byThe New Yorkers Lillian Ross, and
named one of the Top 100 Works of U S Journalism
of the Twentieth Century Lillian Ross worked
atThe New Yorkerfor more than half a century, and
might be described not only as an outstanding
practitioner of modern longform journalism but
also as one of its inventors Picture,
originally published in 1952, is her most
celebrated piece of reportage, a closely observed
and completely absorbing story of how studio
politics and misguided commercialism turn a
promising movie into an allaround disaster
The charismatic and hardbitten director and actor
John Huston is at the center of the book,
determined to make Stephen Crane8217sThe Red
Badge of Courage8212one of the great and defining
works of American literature, the first modern
war novel, a book whose vivid imagistic style
invites the description of cinematic8212into a
movie that is worthy of it At first all
goes well, as Huston shoots and puts together a
twohour film that is, he feels, the best he8217s
ever made Then the studio bosses step in and the
audience previews begin, conferences are held,
and the movie is taken out of Huston8217s hands,
cut down by a third, and finally released8212with
results that please no one and certainly not the
public It was an expensive flop InPicture, which
Charlie Chaplin aptly described as 8220brilliant
and sagacious,8221 Ross is a gadfly on the wall
taking note of the operations of a system
designed to crank out mediocrity
