AN INTIMATE PORTRAIT AND SAGA OF FOUR FILM PIONEERS--HARRY, ALBERT, SAM AND JACK WHO ROSE FROM IMMIGRANT POVERTY THROUGH PERSONAL TRAGEDIES PERSEVERING TO CREATE A MAJOR STUDIO WITH A SOCIAL CONSCIENCE.
Actors:
Sherry Lansing,Dennis Hopper,Tab Hunter
Description:
In this fascinating documentary, filmmaker (and Harry's granddaughter) Cass Warner Sperling tells a story of sibling rivalry, social conscience and the silver screen. It's a story of pioneering (risking all for Talkies) and politics (standing alone inHollywood against the Nazis), of reels (The Public Enemy, Casablanca and more) and rifts (including a shocking family betrayal). It's a story told from the inside (via rare family archives) by those who lived it (among them such stars as Dennis Hopper, Debbie Reynolds, Tab Hunter and more) and from the outside by film historians. The people, the pictures, the tales untold on camera until now - The Brothers Warner educates, enlightens, entertains, reveals.
