About
"Written in 1915, The Art of the Moving Picture by poet Vachel Lindsay was the first book to treat movies as art. Lindsay wrote a brilliant analysis of the early silent films (including several now lost films). He was extraordinarily prescient about the future of moviemaking - particularly about the business, the prominence of technology, and the emergence of the director as the author of the film.". "This Modern Library edition contains a new Appendix to silent film, compiled by Kent Jones at the Lincoln Center Film Society."--BOOK JACKET.
