**Intact Gift Giving Condition book**

Filled with photographs and stories of stars and filmmakers on set and off, Hollywood Black tells an enthralling, underappreciated history as it's never before been told. The book that inspired the MGM+ docuseries, Hollywood Black is a sweeping overview of the Black experience in film from the silent era through Black Panther, with striking photos and an engrossing history by award-winning author Donald Bogle. Explore the rise of independent African American filmmakers and the changes in the film industry with the arrival of sound motion pictures and the Great Depression. More often than not, Black performers were saddled with rigidly stereotyped roles, but some gifted performers, most notably Hattie McDaniel in Gone With the Wind (1939), were able to turn in significant performances.
