- Summary:
- Hearst began producing newsreels and serialized dramas, and he reigned over Hollywood society. One of his films starred a young actress named Marion Davies, and Hearst was instantly smitten. In the 1930s, as the Depression devastated the country, Hearst's politics evolved, and he became out of touch with readers. Circulation numbers dropped and Hearst found himself $78 million in debt.
