Moonlight & Magnolias
MOONLIGHT AND MAGNOLIAS by Ron Hutchinson
Welcome to Hollywood 1939! You're a high powered movie mogul, you've just fired the Director because the Star didn't like him, you have a screenwriter who hasn't read the book and your father-in-law thinks you're a jerk! What's a fellow to do?
If you're David O. Selznick, you pull director Victor Flemming off the 'Wizard of Oz", tie playwright Ben Hecht to a chair, lock the doors, close the shades, and on a diet of peanuts and bananas, knock out the screenplay to one of the most successful movies of all time..."Gone With the Wind". A hilarious backstage peek into what really goes on behind the scenes. "Frankly my dear, this is one funny play..a rip-roaring farce!" crowed the NY Daily News.
