Excerpt from A History of the Movies At the end of four years I had produced a manuscript of ap proximately words. The editorial board of one publishing house to whom it had been submitted suggested presenting it in three volumes! The mere thought of three volumes disheartened me so thoroughly that the manuscript was retired to my shelves. Then Harry Block, an editor who had read portions of the manu script, returned from a year's absence abroad. He rescued the book from my library shelves, read it, and generously offered to assist me in reducing it to one-volume length. Thanks to him that work has been done. Without his enthusiasm, intelligence, and skill, I do not believe that the book could ever have been completed.

Excerpt from A Pictorial History of the Movies Twenty years ago, people used to excuse a bad movie by remarking that the motion pic ture is in its infancy. Today, whenever a par ticularly bad picture swims into our ken, we say the same thing sarcastically; confident that we have thereby delivered a stinging rebuke to the unfortunate movies for not developing faster. Yet consider the motion picture's immediate an cestor, the drama. Twenty-four hundred years ago, Aeschylus, Aristophanes, and Sophocles were writing dramatic masterpieces that must have been the culmination of centuries of patient trial and error by long-forgotten journeymen play wrights. Fifty-four years ago (1943 speaking) the very first motion picture was put upon film. Forty years ago the first motion picture to tell a story, The Great Train Robbery, was re leased. Its producer, Edwin S. Porter, died on April 30, 1941, at the age Of seventy-one. David Wark Griffith, the great pioneer of the pictures, was sixty-three years of age in 1943. Now go back twenty-four centuries. Compare the prog ress of the drama since the days of Sophocles with the progress of the motion picture in the half century of its existence.

Excerpt from Case History of a Movie I have always wanted to do a book which would state nealis tically and in detail how a motion picture is made. I had reserved this plan for some time in the future, when other men will be doing the work I am now doing, and when I would be able to look back and reflect on the enjoyable effort of most of my lifetime.

Excerpt from The Film Answers Back: An Historical Appreciation of the Cinema Eppur SI muove! And yet it moves! In the face of the might of authority, in spite of the notion of a fixed earth which had held the minds of men for thousands of years, Galileo spoke of the world as it revolves. But not only the earth but everything upon it and beneath it, and out beyond into the Universe, all is in motion. Even the eternal hills are not eternal. From an electron to an atom to a solar system, from an amoeba to a plant to a lizard to a man, to groupings of men called society, all is animation, interaction, movement. Action, movement is the core of life as it is the core of man's life among his fellows. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Excerpt from Breaking Into the Movies Were the average man suddenly called upon to assemble all the women in his town who looked like Mary Pickford, he might find himself at a loss as to how to commence. In fact, he might even doubt that there were sufficient persons answering this description to warrant such a campaign. We know a way to get them all together on twenty-four hour's notice. Just insert a small advertisement in the local newspaper, reading: "Wanted for the movies - a girl who looks like Mary Pickford - apply at such-and-such a studio to-morrow morning." We guarantee that not only will every woman who looks like Mary Pickford be on the spot at sunrise, but that a large preponderance of the entire female population will drop in during the morning. For it is a puzzling but indisputable fact that everybody wants to break into the movies. The curious part of it all is that the movies really need these people.

Excerpt from With the Movie Makers Its time. With this in mind, I have attempted to stress those phases of movie-making, and of the story-telling that underlies each photo play, that do not change. A generation hence, the fundamental problems confronting the makers - how to show real people, doing inter esting things in interesting places - will be the same.

Excerpt from Movie Cavalcade: The Story of the Cinema, Its Stars, Studios and Producers Movie cavalcade has reversed this process, however. Starting life as the first really cheap history of the cinema, in paper cover, at 6d., it rapidly exhausted two large editions. Not only that; both I and the publisher have been worried ever since by a constant stream of requests for copies. Spurred on by these letters and by verbal pleas for a more durable stiff-bound edition, I approached the publisher with'a view to producing a small, special, illustrated library edition, at a price Which would cover these extra refinements.
