Now you may read how MGM's "Dream Machine" came face to face with a celebrated priest's "Character Factory." New research presents the backstory to fans of the film. Movie mogul Louis B. Mayer and Father Edward J. Flanagan held winning hands in a high-stakes movie biography. Spencer Tracy and Mickey Rooney starred. Gene Reynolds (Tony Ponessa), Martin Spellman (Skinny), and Frankie Thomas (Freddie Fuller), explain how a half-dozen proposed scripts created a legendary Oscar-winning movie in exclusive interviews.William Russo & Jan Merlin is the author of 'MGM Makes Boys Town' with ISBN 9781425708764 and ISBN 1425708765.
