Sea Hawk

This 1940 swashbuckler is one of the best examples of the old Hollywood studio system at work. Scholars and film buffs will learn much about collaborative filmmaking on an exceptionally large scale as Rudy Behlmer traces step-by-step the evolution of The Sea Hawk. The very anti-thesis of an auteur film, The Sea Hawk illustrates the ways in which creative input from just about everyone on the Warner Brothers lot--producers, writers, art directors, director, cameraman, special effects team, editor and composer-conductor--resulted in a film in the familiar Warners house style. This book includes the complete screenplay.Behlmer, Rudy is the author of 'Sea Hawk' with ISBN 9780299090142 and ISBN 0299090140.
