Robert Florey (14 September 1900 - 16 May 1979) was a French-American director, screenwriter, film journalist and occasional actor.
Born in Paris, and at first a film journalist, Florey moved to the United States in 1921. As a director Florey's most productive decades were the 1930s and 1940s, working on relatively low-budget fillers for Paramount and Warner Brothers. His reputation is balanced between his avant-garde expressionist style, most evident in his early career, and his work as a fast, reliable studio-system director called on to finished troubled projects, such as 1939's Hotel Imperial.
He directed more than 50 movies. His most popular film is likely the first Marx Brothers feature The Cocoanuts of 1929, and his 1932 foray into Universal-style horror, Murders in the Rue Morgue is regarded by horror fans as highly reflective of German expressionism. In 2006, as his 1937 film Daughter of Shanghai was selected for preservation in the United States National Film Registry by the Library of Congress, Florey was called "widely acclaimed as the best director working in major studio B-films".

THE LIFE AND DEATH OF 9413 : A Hollywood Extra - 1928 Robert Florey (SD)
Experimental silent short film from 1928, co-written and co-directed by Robert Florey and Slavko Vorkapić. Considered a landmark in American avant-garde cinema.
Featuring abrupt transitions, rapid camera movements, overlays and low lighting with distorted shapes and figures.
The short film includes a combination of close-ups of real actors and wide shots of miniature sets, made from materials such as cardboard, paper buckets, tin cans, cigarette packets and model trains. With no access to Hollywood studios or facilities, much of the filming took place in the filmmakers' homes, whose walls were painted black as a backdrop.
The story was inspired by Florey's own experiences in Hollywood, as well as George Gershwin's Rhapsody in Blue. It was one of the first cinematic works to be filmed by ...

The story was inspired by Florey's own experiences in Hollywood, as well as George Gershwin's Rhapsody in Blue. It was one of the first cinematic works to be filmed by Gregg Toland, who would later be acclaimed for his work on films such as The Grapes of Wrath (1939) and Citizen Kane (1941). This short film is a satire of the prevailing social conditions, practices and ideologies in Hollywood, as well as the perceived poor treatment of actors by the film industry.
Unlike most experimental shorts, this one has been widely released to the public worldwide. It was distributed by FBO Pictures Corporation to over 700 cinemas in North America and Europe. Douglas Fairbanks participated in the development of the short film and Charlie Chaplin, as well as Joseph M. Schenck, contributed to its promotion.

Court-métrage muet expérimental de 1928, coécrit et coréalisé par Robert Florey et Slavko Vorkapić. Considéré comme une référence dans le cinéma d'avant-garde américain.
Comprenant des transitions abruptes, des mouvements de caméra rapides, des superpositions et un faible éclairage avec des formes et des figures distordues.
Le court métrage comprend une combinaison de gros plans d'acteurs réels et de plans larges de décors miniatures, fabriqués à partir de matériaux tels que du carton, des seaux en papier, des boîtes de conserve, des paquets de cigarettes et des trains miniatures. Sans accès aux studios ou aux équipements d'Hollywood, une grande partie du tournage a eu lieu dans les résidences des cinéastes, dont les murs étaient peints en noir pour servir de toile de fond.
L'histoire a été inspirée par les propres expériences de Florey à Hollywood, ainsi que par la composition Rhapsody in Blue de George Gershwin. C'est l'une des premières œuvres cinématographiques à être filmées par Gregg Toland, qui sera plus tard acclamé pour son travail sur des films tels que Les raisins de la colère (1939) et Citizen Kane (1941). Ce court métrage est une satire des conditions sociales, des pratiques et des idéologies dominantes à Hollywood, ainsi que du mauvais traitement perçu des acteurs par l'industrie cinématographique.
Contrairement à la plupart des courts métrages expérimentaux, celui-ci a fait l'objet d'une large diffusion publique dans le monde entier. Il a été distribué par FBO Pictures Corporation dans plus de 700 salles de cinéma en Amérique du Nord et en Europe. Douglas Fairbanks a participé au développement du court métrage et Charlie Chaplin, ainsi que Joseph M. Schenck, ont contribué à sa promotion.
