A lively critique and discussion of four classic 50s comedies (Featuring Some Like it Hot, Guys and Dolls, How to Marry a Millionaire, & Mister Roberts); a coffee table book complete with photos, including reminders of the Cold War paranoia that begat hula hoops and transistor radios - the decade that changed the movies. Everyone from Marilyn Monroe to Lauren Bacall and Betty Grable; Tony Curtis and Jack Lemmon to Frank Sinatra and Marlon Brando in classic films that inspired generations to come. Vivian Blaine, Henry Fonda, Joe E. Brown, George Raft, Pat O'Brien, James Cagney, Rory Calhoun, Ward Bond, Jean Simmons, Stubby Kaye, and many more stars of the 50s in some of their most memorable roles with insider history of how it all took place. This coffee table book of underrated gems and deeply beloved cinema landmarks is a fun romp for any movie fan.
