When Milo Gardiner is eight years old, his film-loving grandfather introduces him to the magic of classic cinema. Years later, Milo decides to honour his memory by investing his new-found wealth in the movie business. Milo’s ascent in the film industry takes him to London, Paris, and then Hollywood itself, as he oversees movie sets, negotiates contracts, and even starts a screenwriting career. Yet as he rubs shoulders with greedy producers, dishonest agents and fragile actresses, and as he sees how much the industry is powered by money and sleaze, Milo begins to wonder whether the golden age of Hollywood might be well and truly over.

Jeremie Redevance invested in both theatre and film over a period of thirty years. Much of Hollywood Dailies is inspired by his experiences in the entertainment industry, not to mention the eclectic and often outlandish characters he encountered there. Redevance has lived in the UK, France and America. After retiring from his family business, he decided to dedicate himself to writing. He now lives in Geneva with his children.
