NEW YORK, March 16 (UPI) -- HBO announced Monday that "The Sopranos" creator David Chase has signed on to write and produce a miniseries about the history of Hollywood filmmaking.
The New York Times said the drama series, "Ribbon of Dreams," is expected to begin the story at the turn of the last century and to chronicle each period of Hollywood movies -- including silent westerns and comedies, the golden era of the studio system, the emergence of auteur filmmakers in the 1970s and the contemporary smorgasbord of big-budget blockbusters and independent films.
