The Screen Writer (November 1945)

Hollywood: The Screen Writers' Guild, Inc.. Very Good+. 1945. (Vol. I, No. 6). Magazine. [a decent, clean copy, light age-toning and minor external soiling]. In this issue: "The Sign of the Boss," by Ring Lardner Jr., an article highly critical of Cecil B. DeMille; "Screen Writing for Commerce," by Courtney Anderson, about writing for industrial films; "Rank Enthusiasm," by Charles Bennett, about the film production and exhibition activities of the J. Arthur Rank companies; "A Novelist Looks at the Screen," by James Hilton; and an Editorial (unsigned but presumably by Trumbo) speaking to some of the labor and legal issues that were current in the (truncated) wake of recent strikes against the Hollywood studios. .
