Description

"Hollywood Speaks is   a remarkable book. Schuchman's inquiry into how deafness has been treated in   movies provides us with yet another window onto social history in addition to   a fresh angle from which to view Hollywood. Moreover, he joins the ranks of   the few scholars who have made use of Hollywood studio archives."   -- Thomas Cripps, author of Slow Fade to Black: The Negro in American   Film, 1900-1942
