D.W. Griffith, most famous for his controversial film Birth of a
Nation, was one of the undisputed pioneers of the film industry.
This illustrated monograph, first published in 1940, traces
Griffith's rise from an obscure a actor-poet to the most
imaginitive and resourceful film producer of his time. In this
facsimile edition of a classic, Iris Barry gives a critical
evaluation of the man under whose aegis the basic principles of the
art of motion pictures were first fully developed. As Barry writes
in the book's conclusion, ."..the men who make films today know who
it was that taught them the basis of their craft. The American
public, which for 45 years has so keenly enjoyed and supported the
motion picture, has been somewhat relctuant to allow it the status
of an art. Now, gradually, they too are recognizing that in
Griffith they have one of the greatest and most original artists of
our time."
