COVER: America Goes Hollywood. COVER: Photograph of Elizabeth Taylor (circa 1956) by MPTV. TOP OF THE WEEK:
VOICES OF THE CENTURY: From flickering black-and-white images to wide screens bursting with special effects, from scratchy Edison cylinder recordings to the blast of rock, from vaudeville to "A Chorus Line' the past hundred years have taken American entertainment on a rollicking ride from the cultural backwoods to the farthest corners of the globe. Here is the story ofthis remarkable explosion--oftalent, technology and sheer exuberance--told in the words of the men and women who created it. Choosing what to include has been agonizing, for this has been a century when every highlight seemed dazzled by the next, and the sky twinkled with superstars.

The Birth of Hollywood: Shirley Temple's underwhelming Oscar, Paul Robeson as Joe in 'Show Boat,' Irving Berlin writes a song for America, Ira Gershwin and to-mah-toes.

The Golden Age: The Lollipop Kid in 'Oz,' Shelby Foote on Faulkner, Celeste Holm reports on Sinatra, the real 'Little Ricky,' Elizabeth Taylor at MGM--and making 'Giant'.

A Cultural Revolution: The Beatles do Ed Sullivan, star-span-gledjimi Hendrix, Dylan goes electric, Warhol's art goes pop, the birth of 'Charlie's Angels,' Lennon: the last day.

Hollywood Goes Global: Madonna's 'ruthless edge,' the good alien E.T., perils on 'Titanic,' rap goes to the heartland.

THE TEAM: Voices ofthe Century is a yearlong project bringing readers oral historiesfroon the people who shaped the way we live now. This issue about arts and entertainment was produced by a team that includ-edKatrineAmes, DavidAnsen, CorieBrown, Veronica Chambers, Yahlin Chang, Alisha Davis, Ana Figueroa, Donna Foote, David Gates, Jeff Giles, Devin Gordon, Kendall Hamilton, Malcolm Jones, Jack Kroll, Abigail Kuflik, Maggie Malone, Cathleen McGuigan, Mark Miller, Marc Peyser, Peter Plagens, Allison Samuels, Ray Sawhill, Dana Thomas, Evan Thomas and Tara Weingarten.
