So the film capital assembled a cast of hundreds to populate these movies. Hollywood Players: The Forties focuses on 83 of the busiest actors-the screen talent who helped America pass the hours in darkened theaters on the home front, on the sea, and in the rear lines just behind the battlefields. This volume probes the lives and films of these players, uncovering gossipy details about moviemaking and starmaking, and revealing glimpses into the personalities and lives of these 83 stars.
