The first art to emerge from a machine, the motion pictures are unique in their dependence on that device, in their rapid establishment, and in their popularity. A. R. Fulton traces the development of motion pictures as an art, with particular attention to the role of techniques, using as a framework the historical background of the industry and the achievements of important directors - George Melies, Edwin S Porter, Sergei Eisenstein, D.W. Griffith, Erich con Stroheim, John Ford, Pare Lorentz, and others. Listing and template services provided by inkFrog
