Hollywood Babylon is a book by avant-garde filmmaker Kenneth Anger which details the purported scandals of famous Hollywood denizens from the 1900s to the 1950s. The book was banned shortly after it was first published in the U.S. in 1965, and remained unavailable until reprinted ten years later. Upon its second release in 1975, The New York Times said of it, "If a book such as this can be said to have charm, it lies in the fact that here is a book without one single redeeming merit." The Daily Beast described Anger's book as "essentially a work of fiction. There is no doubt that many—if not all—of the stories Anger shares in his slim bible have no merit." Film historian Kevin Brownlow repeatedly criticized the book, citing Anger as saying his research method was "mental telepathy, mostly"

  • Hollywood Babylon ist ein Sachbuch des Avantgarde-Filmemachers Kenneth Anger, das angebliche wie belegbare Skandale aus der Filmindustrie in Hollywood von ihrem Bestehen bis in die 1950er-Jahre detailliert abhandelt. Erstmals wurde es 1959 in Frankreich veröffentlicht. In den USA erschien es erst 1965, wurde schon zehn Tage später verboten und bis 1975 nicht wieder neu aufgelegt, was auch zu dem Kultstatus des Buches beitrug. Angers Hollywood Babylon war stilbildend für spätere Skandalbücher über Hollywood, wenngleich dem Werk seitdem zahlreiche historische Fehler nachgewiesen wurden. 1984 veröffentlichte Anger die Fortsetzung Hollywood Babylon II.

  • Hollywood Babylone est un livre du cinéaste Kenneth Anger publié dans une version embryonnaire en 1959 par l'éditeur parisien Jean-Jacques Pauvert. La publication du livre dans sa version définitive en 1975 aux États-Unis fut entourée de scandale, le livre fut rapidement interdit. Il révèle la face cachée des célébrités de Hollywood. La version complète de 1975 est publiée en français pour la première fois en 2013 par les éditions Tristram. (fr)
  • Hollywood Babilonia è un libro di Kenneth Anger uscito in Francia nel 1959 (col titolo Hollywood Babylone), che traccia una sorta di storia "infame" degli scandali, dei casi di cronaca nera e dei retroscena squallidi della colonia cinematografica di Hollywood, dagli esordi fino agli anni cinquanta. Ha avuto appendici e un nuovo volume (Hollywood Babilonia II) nel 1984, per coprire gli anni successivi. (it)
  • 『ハリウッド・バビロン』(Hollywood Babylon) は、アバンギャルドな映画監督ケネス・アンガーが、1900年代から1950年代に至る時期のハリウッドの映画界の有名な（ないし、悪名高い）多数の人々についての 卑俗な醜聞類を詳しく綴った著作。アメリカ合衆国では1965年に最初に出版されたが、出版から10日後に販売中止となり、1975年まで再刊されなかった。その後出た再刊版について、『ニューヨーク・タイムズ』紙は、「もしこんな本に何らかの魅力があるとしたら、この本にはその問題点を補うような良い点が何もないという事実によるものだろう」と述べた。 (ja)
  • Hollywood Babylon é um livro do cineasta underground Kenneth Anger, em que ele detalha todos os escândalos sórdidos de diversas celebridades de Hollywood, dos anos 1900 aos anos 50. Públicado nos Estados Unidos pela primeira vez em 1965, o livro acabou sendo banido das lojas apenas dez dias após o seu lançamento, e só voltou a circular novamente em 1975. Após o seu segundo lançamento, o jornal New York Times publicou: "Se podemos dizer que há charme em um livro como este, ele deixa a desejar no fato de conter um mérito redentor." (pt)
