He clearly and succinctly charts the major changes in modes of film exhibition, and he provides helpful accounts of new developments in camreas, lenses, color stock, sound recording, etc., in all cases showing how such things influenced film style. One feature of his book I particularly liked is the detailed attention he gives to the major stars of the decade, and to the groundbreaking directors and films."--James Naremore, author of "More than Night: Film Noir in Its Contexts
