4.0 out of 5 stars
An interesting look into the Golden Age of Hollywood.,
By William J. Finn "wjf88" (Sarasota Florida) - See all my reviews
This review is from: The Composer in Hollywood (Hardcover)
Although, not a definite work about the great film music composers of the Golden Age (those are few and far between anyway) this one does have it's charms, particularly when the author is writing about one of his favorite artists. But the obvious disdain Palmer seems to have for Max Steiner, or that the great Victor Young is barely mentioned, prevents this book from being as useful as it could have been. Still, if you simply love the movies of the 30's and 40's then you will likely enjoy this. The point of view of the author is closely tied with how the music works in the picture, and the films that are usually mentioned as examples are those that many if not most film buffs will have seen.
