“These presentations are a unique combination of a number of approaches to talking about the cinema. There are memoirs and biographies, scholarly histories and film analyses and a growing — but pretty dry — literature based on the industry as a business. Rick combines all of these in a way that not only tells the story of a studio, looks at the films it made and asks how it reflected American life; he also enthusiastically explains how the business works, especially the impact of the personalities of the ‘suits’ on the creative process in a unique positive light. The result is to give the audience a multi-viewpoint understanding of Hollywood that they won’t have ever heard before.” … Professor Brian Winston
