Synopsis
Karl Brown, the 16-year-old kid who fast-talked his way into D. W. Griffith's film company, was a keen observer of and participant in two of the most momentous occasions in film history - the production of The Birth of a Nation and of Intolerance. Discovered in retirement by film director and author Kevin Brownlow, who has also contributed the introduction to this book, he was persuaded to tell the story of his beginnings on Griffith's crew. What emerges is a detailed account of D. W. Griffith, his world, and a bygone era of filmmaking.Book Details
