ABOUT THIS BOOK
"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."
