Theatre to Cinema: Stage Pictorialism and the Early Feature

Theatre to Cinema: Stage Pictorialism and the Early Feature Film
- Used Book in Good Condition
This is the first book-length study for nearly fifty years of the relations between early cinema and nineteenth-century theatre. Incorporating the results of recent reconsiderations of early cinema, Brewster explores what features of nineteenth-century theatre early film-makers borrowed or adapted, and the ways specific characteristics of cinema inflected these borrowings. Theatre to Cinema is a seminal work which will profoundly alter our understanding of early cinema.
