So, 'David O. Selznick: Your New Producer'—this 1935 short is kinda fascinating, really. It’s not your typical documentary. It's more like a patchwork of clips, celebrating Selznick's work at MGM. The pacing is quite brisk, flitting from one highlight to another. You get a real sense of the era, with the studio's glossy style and the way they present the producer's vision. There’s a tone of admiration mixed with industry bravado, showcasing Selznick’s influence on the golden age of cinema. Sure, it’s promotional, but it captures a moment in film history, reflecting Selznick’s role as a key figure in shaping narratives. Worth a look for anyone interested in the behind-the-scenes of classic Hollywood.
