Indexed. 448 pp. FROM THE DUST JACKET: "Hard to believe, but it was only yesterday when Hollywood's films were considered ambassadors for the American way of life. Those films featured many fine actors who represented the best America had to offer; among them, seven outstanding performers. Somehow or another, these severn men captured the essence of America. Was it their laconic, low-key, almost shy emoting? Or was it the sort of role they usually played: a hero without heroics, quietly going about his business? Just what was the secret of their 'All American cinema presence'? To answer these questions, award-winning film scholars James Robert Parish and Don E. Stanke viewed several hundred films, studied in detail the careers of these seven actors, unearthed a wealth of rich data. The result: a long overdue study of seven Hollywood worthies, perhaps the last of the genus Cinematus Americanas; the cleancut American guy who could always be depended upon to do the right thing.and still ride off into the sunset with the heroine. With 250 photographs and 537 filmographies in depth, these seven studies are definitive." ABOUT THE AUTHORS (from the dustjacket):James Robert Parish, over the 1970's established himself as the foremost chronicler of Hollywood's Golden Era.

Part of the Encore Film Book Classics series, this is a reprint of the original text to The All-Americans by James Robert Parish and Don E. Stanke. It may be hard to believe, but it was only a few decades ago that Hollywood’s films were considered ambassadors for the American way of life. Those motion pictures featured many fine actors who represented the best the United States had to offer—among them, seven outstanding male performers. Somehow or other, these seven men captured the essence of America. Was it their laconic, low-key, almost shy, but strong emoting? Or was it the sort of screen role they typically played: a hero without heroics, quietly going about his business? Just what was the secret of their “All-American” cinema presence? The All-Americans provides expansive career studies of these seven actors, detailed filmographies, and penetrating accounts of their offcamera lives. The result is a long overdue chronicle of seven Hollywood worthies representing the clean-cut American guy who could always be depended upon in films to do the right thing . . . and still head off into the sunset with the heroine. The seven wholesome leading men profiled in The All-Americans are: GARY COOPER. “That fellow is the world’s greatest actor.”—John Barrymore. HENRY FONDA. An ageless picture of integrity. WILLIAM HOLDEN. “He is beyond acting. You never doubt or question what he is.”—Billy Wilder. ROCK HUDSON. The very handsome leading man who, surprisingly, had superb acting talents. FRED MacMURRAY. For decades, his perfected double-take and patented smile kept him at the top of his professional game. RONALD REAGAN. Did studio mogul Jack Warner know he was responsible for his star’s integrity and future entry into politics? JAMES STEWART. A magical capacity for sincerity and believability. This then is the impressive lineup featured in The All-Americans.
