When film attempts to capture fascinating and inspiring stories that capture our hearts and imagination, the filmmakers are faced with the challenge of making the illusion real ... and things can sometimes go awry. Movies cost millions of dollars, take up countless feet of film, and can take years to complete. In some cases the work ends up on a cutting-room floor with viewers never having a chance to see the final product. In other cases, changes to casts, location, budgets, scripts, and even edits to the captured footage, can distort or change a movie from its original intent. Those are the stories told in Hollywood'nt. The books captures a collection of films that held great promise but were met with ordinary and extraordinary circumstances beyond their control that changed their future. In some cases the films themselves were never completed because the challenges became too great to overcome. In other cases the movie was completed and released but not in the form it was originally intended. Stars like Tyrone Power, William Holden, Jean Harlow, Marilyn Monroe, River Phoenix, Montgomery Clift, Bruce Lee, and directors like Alfred Hitchcock, Stanley Kubrick, George Cukor and more are covered in some of Hollywood's most troubled and often failed motion pictures.
