The Last Tycoon

Hollywood in the 1930's is a legend in the making. The people who populate it seem to be touched by magic. The films produced there capture the hearts and imaginationsof millions of moviegoers, satisfying their dreams of comedy, drama, fantasy and adventure. And for its most glamourous and prolific years, Hollywood has found itself the perfect leading man. Monroe Stahr is the youthful head of a major studio and the producer of a string of artistic and trumphs. Stahr is a fascinating combination of masterful executive and creative genius; a romantic idealist with an accountant's sensibilities. He moves through the glitter and glory of Hollywood's golden age - a part of it yet apart from it. His success is unparalleled, but the love that he longs for eludes him. Fated to fulfil everyone's dreams except his own, he is the consort to film making's most romantic era. All-powerful and all alone, he is Hollywood's last tycon. © Paramount Pictures Corp.
