Please note that the content of this book primarily consists of articles available from Wikipedia or other free sources online. Pages: 43. Chapters: Marx Brothers, List of show business families, Lane Sisters, The Osmonds, Jackson family, Ritz Brothers, Barrymore family, Gyllenhaal family, Redgrave family, Coppola family tree, Carradine family, Westmore family, Chaplin family, Wiere Brothers, Watson family, Arquette family, Mankiewicz family, Roberts family, Estevez family. Excerpt: This is a list of show business families. It is contemporary (in the sense that a professional offshoot should still be working in the 20th or twenty-first centuries) and should be expanded. The guideline is that at least one of the relationships in the clan should be by blood – siblings, parents, children, cousins, and so on. Following families are brothers and sisters who are recognizable as celebrity siblings (and who may also be listed within families). The list of family connections in the Indian film industry is so extensive that it has its own article-see List of Indian film clans.

The “Golden Age” referred to here spans The Jazz Singer and the advent of the talkies to the death throes of the old studio system in the 1960s. So vast was the era’s musical landscape that even this 42-track, double-disc anthology can’t encompass all its peaks. Not surprisingly, the bulk of this collection originated with the Tiffany’s of the screen musical, M-G-M, a body of work whose riches here encompass both pop-cultural bedrock (“Over the Rainbow,” “Singin’ in the Rain,” “There’s No Business Like Show Business,” etc.) and some less familiar, if equally delightful star turns: Clark Gable gamely “Puttin’ On the Ritz”; the sassy, 1948 original of “The Lady Is a Tramp” by Lena Horne; and a loopy duet of “Baby, It’s Cold Outside” by Esther Williams and Ricardo Montalban. Fred Astaire’s elegant, epochal reign at RKO and M-G-M is represented by “Night and Day,” “Let’s Face the Music and Dance,” and three others, while Metro mainstays Gene Kelly and Judy Garland share equal time and billing. It’s not perfect–Cagney’s “Yankee Doodle Boy” and/or some Sinatra seem more logical choices than the odd “bonus” duet of Casablanca‘s “As Time Goes By” and “Lara’s Theme” from Dr. Zhivago that close out disc one–but it’s a stunning, surprisingly comprehensive primer on the Hollywood film musical nonetheless. –Jerry McCulley
