Jules Furthman was a magazine and newspaper writer when he began
writing for films in 1915. When the U.S. entered WWI Furthman used the
name "Stephen Fox" for his screenplays because he thought his name
sounded too German, but he reverted to his real name after the war.
Furthman became one of the most prolific, and well-known, screenwriters
of his time, and was responsible for the screenplays of some of
Hollywood's most highly regarded films, such as Les révoltés du Bounty (1935), Le Port de l'angoisse (1944) and
Le Charlatan (1947).
