'Beneath the tough exterior of the Hollywood Mogul, there beat a heart of rock. Most of them invaded the United States as children, and carved out empires as young men.

with the voices of Dana Andrews, Kitty Carlisle, Allan Dwan, Douglas Fairbanks Jr, Dorothy Lamour, Jesse Lasky Jr, Rouben Mamoulian, George Sidney, Leonard Spiegelgass, Norman Taurog and Billy Wilder
