Film Flam: Essays on Hollywood is a 1987 collection of essays by writer Larry McMurtry about the film industry, including his own experiences with the adaptations of his novels.[2][3]

The book was based in part on a regular column McMurtry wrote for American Film, a magazine for the American Film Institute.[4]

Reception

Kirkus Reviews praised the book, writing: "McMurtry's modest essays on Hollywood screenwriting and films generally are among the most literate and absorbing in recent memory, especially when set beside William Goldman's Adventures in the Screen Trade."[1]
