Description

United Artists was a unique motion picture company in the history of Hollywood.

Founded by Charlie Chaplin, Mary Pickford, Douglas Fairbanks, and director D.W.

Griffith - four of the greatest names of the silent era - United Artists functioned as a distribution company for independent producers.

In this lively and detailed history of United Artists from 1919 through 1951, film scholar Tino Balio chronicles the company's struggle for survival, its rise to prominence as the Tiffany of the industry, and its near extinction in the 1940s.

This edition is updated with a new introduction by Balio that places in relief UA's operations for those readers who may be unfamiliar with film industry practices and adds new perspective to the company's place within Hollywood.
