Publisher Description: A collection of essays on fifteen feature-length silent films and two silent serial features. The aims of the collection are threefold: to provide detailed accounts of a wide array of films produced between the early 1910s and the early 1930s; to focus principally on films that may be well-known but that have rarely been discussed in detail; and hence to appeal to those interested in film style and its history. Outstanding group of contributors - see details on Author Biography page - all are acknowledged and well-regarded scholars in the field, many of whom have established international reputations for their work in this area and a world-renowned editor. |
Contributor Bio(s): Neale, Steve: - Steve Neale is professor emeritus of film studies at the University of Exeter and academic director of the Bill Douglas Centre for the History of Cinema and Popular Culture. |
