 Filmography |
After World War II, Jack Young kicked around Hollywood looking to become an actor. Instead, he became something much more exciting: a stuntman. Specializing in Westerns, Jack led a nomadic existence that took him all over the world risking his life to supply the spectacle and thrills that lured audiences away from the encroaching threat of television and into the theater. By studying this case history of the stuntman, the student of film history will learn the social context and the production conditions of working in Hollywood during its late-classical phase in the 1950s and early 1960s.
