Review

"Massively detailed, scrupulously and exhaustively researched, copiously graphed and illustrated, heavily footnoted, examining each period from several critical and sociological perspectives, these three books are perfectly representative, in many ways, of the state of academic film research today." -- Michael Wilmington, Los Angeles Times Book Review

"Meticulously illustrated with frame enlargements from the original films, trade advertisements and productions shots. . . . Musser uses these illustrations . . . to pinpoint every development, every lawsuit and policy change within the burgeoning industry. . . . [He] has brought dignity to an era previously regarded as primitive." -- Kevin Lewis, Film Culture

"Musser gives a new concreteness to standard arguments about the development of an early cinema of attractions into a cinema of narrative complexity." -- Dana Polan, Film Quarterly

"Musser's work constitutes a revolution in the study of early American cinema." -- Stephen Bottomore, Historical Journal for Film, Radio and Television
