ALA Booklist Editor's Choice 2003 list Action! is a family saga in which five decades of Hollywood history are embodied in the lives of three generations of your movie dynasty, with each generation reflecting the changing values of the motion-picture industry. AJ Jastrow, the producer at the center of the story, seeks to build a movie empire. Along the way he battles manipulative executives, power-crazed directors, drug-addicted actors, duplicitous agents, the FBI, and his own mother, Hollywood's wealthiest woman. Interwoven into the fiction are a few of Hollywood's most colorful historical characters and a who's who of today's players. Author Robert Cort, the producer of fifty-two films which may have grossed more than $2 billion at the box office, has written a novel that's not only a page-turning family drama but also an internal account of Hollywood and exactly how movies are actually made.
