Joseph McBride 
Frank Capra [PDF ebook] 
The Catastrophe of Success

Soporte

Moviegoers often assume Frank Capra’s life resembled his beloved films (such as
Mr. Smith Goes to Washington and
It’s a Wonderful Life). A man of the people faces tremendous odds and, by doing the right thing, triumphs! But as Joseph Mc Bride reveals in this meticulously researched, definitive biography, the reality was far more complex, a true American tragedy. Using newly declassified U.S. government documents about Capra’s response to being considered a possible “subversive” during the post-World War II Red Scare, Mc Bride adds a final chapter to his unforgettable portrait of the man who gave us
It Happened One Night,
Mr. Deeds Goes to Town, and
Meet John Doe.
