On February 1, 1922, The Distinguished Silentfilm Director William Desmond Taylor Was Shot To Death In His Los Angeles Bungalow By An Unknown Assailant. Reports Of Strange Activities At The Scene Of The Crime Circulated Soon After. When The Police Arrived, Was The Head Of Paramount Studios Burning A Bundle Of Papers In The Fireplace, And Was A Wellknown Actress Searching The House For Letters She Claimed Were Hers? Despite A Fullscale Investigation, The Case Was Never Solved; For Sixty Years Is Has Remained A Lingering Hollywood Scandal. In 1967, More Than Forty Years After Taylor'S Death, The Great King Vidor, Whose Directing Credits Include Northwest Passage, The Fountainhead, Duel In The Sun, And War And Peace, Determined To Solve The Mystery, Which Had Haunted Him Throughout His Career, In Order To Make A Film About It. Through His Intimate Knowledge Of Both The Studios And The Stars, He Succeeded, Where Dozens Of Professional Detectives Had Failed, In Discovering The Identity Of The Murderer. But Because His Findings Were So Explosive, He Decided He Could Never Go Public And Locked His Evidence Away. After Vidor'S Death In 1982, Sidney D. Kirkpatrick, Vidor'S Authorized Biographer, Gained Access To The Evidence And Reconstructed The Amazing Story Of Taylor'S Murder And Vidor'S Investigation. With A Cast Of Suspects That Includes The Actress Mabel Normand, A Reputed Drug Addict; The Beautiful Ingnue, Mary Miles Minter; Mary'S Domineering Mother, Charlotte Shelby; Taylor'S Homosexual Houseman; And Taylor'S Secretary, Who Bore An Uncanny Resemblance To Taylor'S Mysteriously Elusive Brother, This True Crime Story Has All The Elements Of A Classic Murder Mystery.
