Scott Fitzgerald on Silent Film recalibrates the celebrated author's early career and brings fresh understanding to the life of one of America's truly great literary figures. Scholars have previously focused on Fitzgerald's connection with Hollywood when he worked in Tinseltown as a screenwriter in the 1930s. However, this ground-breaking research reveals the key role that Silent Hollywood played in establishing Fitzgerald's burgeoning reputation in the early to mid-1920s. Vividly written and drawing on a wealth of new sources, this book documents Martina Mastandrea's exciting discovery of the first film ever adapted from a work by Fitzgerald.
