THE STUDIO
by John Gregory Dunne
In 1967 John Gregory Dunne asked for unlimited access to the inner workings of Twentieth Century Fox. Miraculously, he got ir. For one year, Dunne went everywhere he could go and talked to everyone within the studio. The result is a work of reportage that, thirty years later, may still be our most minutely observed and therefore most uproariously funny portrait of the motion picture business.
