The Last Tycoon = Последний Магнат: на англ.яз

Автор: Фицджеральд Фрэнсис Скотт, «The Last Tycoon. Последний Магнат: на англ.яз»: F. S. Fitzgerald (1896—1940) was an American writer, whose works illustrate the Jazz Age. «The Last Tycoon» is a magnificient story of doomed love set against the extravagance of America’s booming film industry. The studio lot looks like ‘thirty acres of fairyland’ the night that a mysterious woman stands and smiles at Monroe Stahr, the last of the great Hollywood princes. Enchanted by one another, they begin a passionate but hopeless love affair, starting with a fast-moving seduction as slick as a scene from one of Stahr’s pictures. The romance unfolds, frame by frame, watched by Cecilia, a thoroughly modern girl who has taken her lessons in sentiment and cynicism from all the movies she has seen.
