&#34;Independent film is a vast and varied territory, and Phil  Hall&#8217;s remarkable book explores every inch of it with wit, intelligence, a  sympathetic spirit, and a wide-open mind. Fresh discoveries and surprising  revelations abound on every topic from Edison to Aronofsky, Anger to Warhol,  the silent era to the Internet age. It&#8217;s hard to imagine a study more keenly in  tune with one of cinema&#8217;s liveliest, most multifaceted fields.”  &#8212; David  Sterritt, Ph.D, chairman, National Society of Film Critics
The  &#34;remarkable book&#34; in question is called The History of Independent Cinema, which, as the title implies, covers the century-long development of American filmmaking outside the big-studio lots. Published by BearManor Media, The History [...]]]></description>

Wilfrid Parsons, S.J., editor of the Jesuit weekly America. The year was 1932, and the hot-tempered Irish Catholic, lately summoned to Hollywood, Calif., by motion picture czar Will H.
