Hollywood unions called the phenomenon runaway production to underscore the outsourcing of employment opportunities. Examining this period of transition from the late 1940s to the early 1960s, Runaway Hollywood shows how film companies exported production around the world and the effect this conversion had on industry practices and visual style. In this fascinating account, Daniel Steinhart uses an array of historical materials to trace the industry's creation of a more international production operation that merged filmmaking practices from Hollywood and abroad to produce movies with a greater global scope.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eTable of Contents\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003eAcknowledgments\u003cbr\u003e Prologue: Movie Ruins\u003cbr\u003e Introduction: “Have Talent, Will Travel”\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e part i:\u003cbr\u003e foundations\u003cbr\u003e 1 • All the World’s a Studio: Th e Design and Debates\u003cbr\u003e of Postwar “Runaway” Productions\u003cbr\u003e Case Study.
