An Evening's Entertainment : The Age of the Silent Feature Picture, 1915-1928 Paperback / softback

Part of the History of the American Cinema series

Paperback / softback

Description

The silent cinema was America's first modern entertainment industry, a complex social, cultural, and technological phenomenon that swept the country in the early years of the twentieth century.

Richard Koszarski examines the underlying structures that made the silent-movie era work, from the operations of eastern bankers to the problems of neighborhood theater musicians.

He offers a new perspective on the development of this major new industry and art form and the public's response to it.
