Douglas Fairbanks: The Making Of A Screen Character is a biography written by Alistair Cooke that explores the life and career of the legendary Hollywood actor, Douglas Fairbanks. The book takes a comprehensive look at Fairbanks' rise to fame, from his early days as a struggling actor to his eventual success as one of the biggest stars of the silent era. Cooke delves into Fairbanks' personal life, including his marriages to Mary Pickford and Sylvia Ashley, and his relationships with other Hollywood luminaries such as Charlie Chaplin and D.W. Griffith. The book also examines Fairbanks' impact on the film industry, particularly his pioneering work in the development of the swashbuckling adventure genre. Through extensive research and interviews with those who knew Fairbanks best, Cooke provides a fascinating and insightful portrait of a true Hollywood icon.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
