520			_a"Behind the Screen" by Samuel Goldwyn is a memoir written in the early 20th century. This work offers an insider's look into the early days of Hollywood and the development of the motion picture industry. Goldwyn reflects on his own journey from a humble background to becoming a key figure in filmmaking, detailing the rise of the industry and the personalities involved, such as iconic stars like Mary Pickford and Charlie Chaplin. The opening of the memoir sets the stage for Goldwyn's transformative experience in a small cinema that ignited his passion for filmmaking. He recounts how, after watching a film, he envisioned a new path for motion pictures, proposing longer, more sophisticated films to his brother-in-law, Jesse Lasky. Goldwyn describes their initial skepticism and his subsequent determination to establish a new standard in filmmaking, ultimately leading to the founding of the Lasky Company. This origin story not only highlights the early struggles and triumphs of Goldwyn and Lasky but also hints at the collaborative and competitive nature of the creative environment in Hollywood that would unfold in the chapters to come.
