Douglas Fairbanks: The Making Of A Screen Character is a biography written by Alistair Cooke that delves into the life and career of the legendary Hollywood actor, Douglas Fairbanks. The book provides a detailed account of Fairbanks' rise to fame, from his early days as a stage actor to his transition to the silver screen. Cooke explores the various roles that Fairbanks played in his films, including his iconic portrayal of swashbuckling heroes in movies such as The Mark of Zorro and The Thief of Bagdad. The book also delves into Fairbanks' personal life, including his marriage to fellow actress Mary Pickford and his involvement in the creation of United Artists, a film studio that he co-founded with Pickford, Charlie Chaplin, and D.W. Griffith. Through extensive research and interviews with those who knew Fairbanks, Cooke provides a fascinating look at one of the most influential actors in Hollywood history.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
