Journalist, screenwriter, novelist, soldier, filmmaker – Samuel Fuller was one of American cinema#39;s most prolific and multi-faceted talents. However, the films based on Fuller#39;s early work as a screenwriter remain under appreciated.
It Happened in Hollywood: Regarded by Fuller as his #39;first real Hollywood credit#39;, the film has a now-familiar premise: the silent film star who finds they are unable to make the transition to talkies. Blending comedy, romance, action, and a playful self-reflexive streak, the film established Fuller in Hollywood.
Adventure in Sahara: Fuller takes full story credit on this rip-roaring adventure yarn inspired – he claimed – by Victor Hugo, Beau Geste, and Mutiny on the Bounty.
Power of the Press: Drawing on Fuller#39;s own experiences as young newspaperman and journalist, this crime drama is a passionate cry for freedom of speech and expression. The film also features Fuller#39;s first fully formed and vital female heroine in the shape of the impassioned Edwina (Gloria Dickson).
Special Features:
- High Definition remasters of all three films
- Original mono audio
- It Happened in Hollywood (1937, 68 mins): Richard Dix and Fay Wray star as big-screen actors adapting to the coming of sound in this witty exposé of Tinseltown, directed by Harry Lachman from a screenplay co-written by Samuel Fuller
- Adventure in Sahara (1938, 57 mins): action-packed drama of revenge and honour, starring Paul Kelly and Lorna Gray, directed by D Ross Lederman from a story by Fuller
- Power of the Press (1943, 64 mins): Lew Landers directs this hard-edged drama about corruption within the newspaper industry, based on a story by Fuller and starring Guy Kibbee, Lee Tracy and Gloria Dickson
- All-Star Party (2018, 6 mins): who#39;s who of the #39;stars#39; and their impersonators in the climactic party scene from It Happened in Hollywood
- Sam Fuller#39;s Search for Truth with Tim Robbins (2009, 7 mins): the celebrated actor explores Fuller#39;s time as a reporter
