Tara and EmKay put on their dramaturg hats and unpack the history of filmmaking beginning with the establishment of Hollywood! Join us for a behind the scenes look at 1930's MGM with Louis B. Mayer at the helm, the more shadowy sides of the Golden Age of Hollywood, and the first screenwriters to begin bringing 1939's "The Wizard of Oz" to the silver screen. We are studying for our Oz A.P. test, ya'll!
