This book contains the complete screenplay, including two radically different endings, of Erich von Stroheim's thwarted near-masterpiece. Less than half the script had been shot when the extravagant and controversial production was halted. In addition to the extensively annotated 230-page shooting script, this volume also includes 90 pages from an earlier draft, photos, and full production credits, thus providing a richly detailed picture of what would have been one of the last great spectacles of the silent era. A must read for silent film enthusiasts and anyone with an academic or personal interest in film history and classic movies.Von Stroheim, Erich is the author of 'Queen Kelly The Complete Screenplay' with ISBN 9780810843929 and ISBN 0810843927.
