Book Reviews of Cecil B. DeMille and American Culture: The Silent Era

Book Review: Quite good
Summary: 3 Stars

This book was quite good but the best part was the behind the scenes view of cinema in the 20's. It is quite well written and focus on the genius of the director. I quite enjoyed it bu it would have profered more on the actual films of DeMille rather than the backround. Also i did not think it had a acurate portryal of some of his helper and really neglected to mention the people who helped Demille become who he was.
