Rezensionen / Stimmen
One of the most enjoyable movie books to come out in a long time....No one interested in Esther Ralston or cinema history will want to miss this very readable volume. * The Big Reel * This is a book of charm and humor, and a vivid portrait of the Hollywood of the period, embellished with a generous selection of rare photographs. * Film Review Annual * Would make interesting reading for those fascinated by the silent American cinema. * Communication Booknotes Quarterly * Fascinating....Provides startling insights into 'the Age of Innocence.' -- Kevin Brownlow
