COWBOYS CREATURES CLASSICS STORY OF REPUBLIC PICTURES
Republic Pictures was the little studio in the San Fernando Valley where movies were made family style. A core of technicians, directors, and actors worked hard at their craft as Republic released a staggering total of more than a thousand films through the late 1950s. Republic brought action, adventure, and escape to neighborhood movies houses across America. And they brought it with style. Republic Pictures became a studio where major directors could bring their personal vision to the screen. Sometimes these were projects no other studio would touch such as The Quiet Man (which brought director John Ford an Oscar) and Macbeth. Cowboys, Creatures and Classics: The Story of Republic Pictures is the honest account of an extraordinary production house, one whose ability to turn out films quickly boded well for its transition into television production.
