Exploring the social commentary film, Kevin Brownlow covers the sensational and the dour in this lengthy volume on the silent era’s muses of conscience.
Sex, drugs, crime, corruption, divorce, prohibition, and the resulting censorship are all covered here. Brownlow introduces us to many of these films, unknown outside of archives, that haven’t been seen since the 1910s and 1920s.
Profusely illustrated with well-reproduced stills, frame enlargements and contemporary advertisements. Another fine Brownlow production.
