Buck Parvin and the Movies
An unusual site. This site contains two stories, fictionalized depictions of the birth of Hollywood by a writer named Charles E. Van Loan. In 1915-16, he published a series of stories about early filmmaking called "Buck Parvin and the Movies." These, in turn, were soon brought to the screen themselves. Although they are fiction, they are closely based on actual incidents and individuals associated with the Selig Company. This website reprints two of these stories, "The Extra Man and the Milkfed Lion" and "Author! Author!" with commentary by the well-known film historian Bob Birchard. Most fascinating of all is the inclusion of extensive notes by Hobart Bosworth in 1943, towards the end of his life. For the benefit of a librarian, Bosworth, a close friend of Van Loan, added an introduction about the Selig Company and annotated the stories throughout, detailing the factual basis for specific details and characters in the stories.
