Looking back on a century that witnessed the emergence of motion
pictures to become, almost immediately, a dominant cultural force
in our lives, this penetrating and provocative book argues that
"movies (like cathedrals) cannot help but display the subconscious
impulses oftheir society." From D.W. Griffith to the Marx Brothers
to film noir, "what are conceived and consumed as innocent pop
movies ... are in fact manifestations of wild horror, superstitious
ignorance, fatalistic dread and bigoted savagery."
