Palookaville.

We have lost one of the great titans of literature and screenwriting. Writer of Elia Kazan’s corruption exposé On The Waterfront and the powerhouse insider’s guide to Hollywood backstabbing What Makes Sammy Run?, Budd Schulberg was literally born into the business by being son of B. P. Schulberg, head of Paramount Pictures and Adeline Jaffe-Schulberg, sister to agent/film producer Sam Jaffe.

What a life. Take a look at excerpts from this online documentary.

“The only novelist to come from Hollywood, not go to Hollywood.”
