A filmmaker with a diverse background in music, drama and television, Hill proved to be a popular storyteller in a variety of genres. His films are tied to important American themes and reflect an ironic, bittersweet vision of life. The book begins with a discussion of the way Hill's films often make their most important statements on the subtextual level. The stories entertain, but the subtext is often disturbing, contradictory, unresolved. Hill felt that all of his major characters create an environment, a fantasy, an illusion, and then go on to make it happen. It continues by tracing the thematic characteristics that are consistent with Hill's depiction of protagonists who create their own environments and then attempt to inhabit them. Then, individual chapters study in detail the art, craft and style of each of his films, including Period of Adjustment, Toys in the Attic, The World of Henry Orient, Hawaii, Thoroughly Modern Millie, Slaughterhouse Five, The Great Waldo Pepper, Slap Shot, A Little Romance, The World According to Garp, The Little Drummer Girl, Funny Farm, Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid, The Sting" ; Andrew Horton is the Jeanne H. Smith Professor of Film and Video Studies at the University of Oklahoma. He is an award-winning screenwriter who has written for American, Greek, New Zealand, Russian, Hungarian, and Norwegian productions. ; "As I get older, I get more didactic. I say what I really think. I don't hide ideas like Easter eggs for people to find. Now, if I have an idea, when something becomes clear to me, I don't embed it in a novel; I simply write it out in an essay as clearly as I can?"--George Roy Hill ; photos of Robin Williams, Paul Newman, Jane Fonda, Jim Hutton, Tony Franciosa, Dean Martin, Yvette Mimieux, Geraldine Page, Peter Sellers, Tippy Walker Marie Spaeth, Max von Sydow, Julie Andrews, Robert Redford, Michael Sacks, Michael Ontkean, Laurence Olivier, Diane Lane, Thelonius Bernard, John Lithgow, Glenn Close, Mary Beth Hurt ; FINE/VG.

Three vintage gatherings of the periodical "Film Music Notes" (FMN), comprising all 26 issues published in 1942 through 1944, bound in three volumes, each with titled wrappers, "Film Music Notes / 1942," "Film Music Notes / 1943," and "Film Music Notes / 1944," with manuscript graphite, red, and blue pencil annotations on 39 pages of fourteen issues. The three gatherings found here comprise the first full three years of the periodical's publication, beginning with "Volume I / January, 1942 / Number IV" and ending with "Volume IV / December, 1944 / Number III." Detailed inventory available upon request. The three bound gatherings are: "Film Music Notes / 1942," comprised of all eight issues published in 1942, from Vol. 1 No. IV through Vol. II No. III, with each issue ranging from seven to nine pages. (In 1942 FMN published only eight issues, rather than the nine found in 1943 and 1944, combining the May and June issues into one "May-June 1942" issue, Vol. II No. III.) "Film Music Notes / 1943," comprised of all nine issues published in 1943, from Vol. II No. IV through Vol. III No. III, with each issue ranging from eight to twelve pages. "Film Music Notes / 1944," comprised of all nine issues published in 1944, from Vol. III No. IV through Vol. IV No. III, with each issue ranging from eleven to twenty three pages. The first issue of FMN, Vol. 1, No. 1 (not included in the bound volumes here), was published in October 1941, and was spearheaded largely by the efforts of a group of Hollywood women on behalf of the National Federation of Music Clubs (the Federation). On June 1, 1941, as part of the "Festival of Motion Pictures" at the Federation's biennial American Music Festival, the Federation, feeling the Academy Awards were not adequately recognizing musicians and composers, held their first film music awards night. The overwhelming success of the awards night, as well as growing requests from music educators for resources and advise on how to teach about film music, lead Federation members, headed by chairperson Grace Widney Mabee, to begin the publication of the groundbreaking periodical four months later, which, during its inception, was largely built upon the Federation's existing structures and resources. In 1943, FMN was integral to the formation of the National Film Music Council (NFMC), created largely by Federation members and FMN contributors and editors, Mabee, Sigmund Spaeth (FMN Advisory Chairman), Constance Purdy (FMN editor), and others, and was announced in the "Foreword" of FMN, Vol. 2, No.1, October, 1943, found in the volumes offered here. FMN continued publication for seventeen years, ending in 1958. Issues of FMN are generally comprised of a "Foreword," followed by "Comments and Open Forum" (which by the November 1942 issue, Vol. II, No. II, had transitioned to "News Items"), film reviews (which focus on the use of music in film, and range from five to 28 reviews per issue), as well as various articles, essays, and biographies. Regular contributing authors found in the three bound volumes here include: Gail Kubik (composer), Margery Morrison (FMN Associate Editor), Purdy (actress, musician, and FMN Editor), Naomi Reynolds (of The Musician's Congress), and Spaeth (musicologist, author, and FMN Advisory Chairman). Contributing authors found in the volumes on offer here, include: Composers: Scott Bradley, Rudy De Saxe, Adolph Deutsch, Nat W. Finston, Arthur Kleiner, William Lava, Vernon Leftwich, Alfred Newman, Miklós Rózsa, David Rudhyar, Jack Schaindlin, Max Steiner, Herbert Stothart, Franz Waxman, Roy Webb, and Charles Wolcott. As well as: Alice Evans Field (MPPDA studio liason), Chauncey Haines, Jr. (musician), Hal Hall ("The American Cinematographer" editor), John Huntley (British film historian), Isabel Morse Jones (LA Times critic and musician), Jay Leyda (experimental filmmaker), Louis Lipstone (head of Paramount Pictures music department), Harry Mines (LA Daily News critic), Ivan Narodny (Russian revolutionary and émigré), Mildred Norton (LA Daily News critic), Cecil Stokes (creator of the Auroratone), and Dr. Bruno David Ussher (musicologist and LA music critic). Articles found in the volumes on offer here, include: "Cartoon Music of the Future," "[George Pal's] Puppetoons," "The Auroratone," "Scoring the Jungle Book," "Russian Music," "The Importance of Motion Picture Music," "Music in Government Films," a "Special Article" on Constantin Bakaleinikoff (composer and Director of Music Department of RKO-Radio), "Music of the Americas," "Screen Music Assumes New Stature," "Procedure of Preparing a Musical Score for a Picture," "José Iturbi Comes to the Screen," "[Dmitri] Shostakovich - Film Composer," "A Visit to the Music Recording Stage at Warner Bros.," "What Music Arranging Does for the Pictures," "An Afternoon in the Home of Erich Wolfgang Korngold," "New Russian Music Born of War," "The Sixth Sense in Film Mechanics," "Notes on the Life and Works of Aaron Copland," "Rhapsody in Blue: A Day on the Gershwin Set," "British Film Music," "Mexican Films in Hollywood," and "An Institute of Music in Contemporary Life," among many others.
