A view into the creative process of one of the most talented figures of American cinema. When production began in 1928, writer/director Erich von Stroheim predicted the silent epic "Queen Kelly" would be a great achievement. Yet, this work shows that it was a masterpiece that might have been.
This book contains the complete screenplay, including two radically different endings, of Erich von Stroheim''s thwarted near-masterpiece. Less than half the script had been shot when the extravagant and controversial production was halted. In addition to the extensively annotated 230-page shooting script, this volume also includes 90 pages from an earlier draft, photos, and full production credits, thus providing a richly detailed picture of what would have been one of the last great spectacles of the silent era. A must read for silent film enthusiasts and anyone with an academic or personal interest in film history and classic movies.
