Pittsburgh Connection
In an age of legends and glamour, Jack Warner reigned supreme. From humble beginnings, he and his brothers, children of first-generation Polish-Jewish immigrants, founded Warner Bros. studios. After starting with their first movie theater in New Castle, PA, they would go on to help create the glitz and glamourous world known as Hollywood. Ultimately, Jack Warner held the crown for over fifty years, and with it made movie history—from flickering silents to wide-screen color epics. An insider’s account of the man Bette Davis, Errol Flynn, James Cagney, Edward G. Robinson, Humphrey Bogart, and Bugs Bunny called "boss.”
Followed by a Q&A with Jack Warner’s grandson, writer, producer, director Gregory Orr and editor, co-producer Don Priess
