At the Academy's Margaret Herrick Library, Adam tours through the collection of movie scripts, news clippings, and publicity ephemera that comprises just a fraction of the library's holdings documenting Hollywood film history. And in its collections vault, he encounters an eclectic sample of production materials from some of his favorite filmmakers. Plus, the original cowardly lion's wig from The Wizard of Oz!
