Also captured in this richly detailed re-creation of movie-making, fans can re-live and experience the bright, idiosyncratic, wildly devoted MGM-ers approaching Production #1060 as they would any of the 52 MGM?productions scheduled each year, giving it shape in a thousand ingenious ways including:inventing the actor?s lines and the songs ?the flying hordes of monkeys through the sky growing the poppy field ?building the Emerald City and the other 60 setsdesigning and sewing the nearly 1,000 costumes pinning up colors for Technicolor enduring the pressures from the front office (studio executives re Garland's "Over the Rainbow":?"Why does she sing in a barnyard??Take it out!")? choosing the actors Jack Haley on makeup wizardry:?"I?couldn't breathe through my faceBert Lahr on the cowardly lion skin:?"It was like carrying a mattress around with you"??Margaret Hamilton analyzing the Wicked Witch:?"She enjoyed every minute screaming about those slippers"?This is a marvelous, unprecedented examination of studio life as it was lived day by day, detail by detail, department by department, at the most powerful and flamboyant studio Hollywood has ever known--at its moment of greatest power.
