Compiled and Filmography by ROB STONE
Grover Jones was one of the most prolific screenwriters during the first decade of sound films in Hollywood. It is estimated that over 65% of Paramount Pictures' releases in the 1930s featured work by Grover Jones as the writer, gag man or script doctor. However, in the previous decade Jones, in addition to his work as a writer/gag man, directed some great silent comedies. This book is the story of those days with Jones working with the likes of W.C. Fields, Billy Franey and Joe Rock told in his own words. Also included is a detailed filmography of his work in silent films. An unjustly forgotten filmmaker, this is the first book on Grover Jones.
