With frames and photographs you've never seen before, with pungently alive firsthand recollections, The Parade's Gone By... re-creates the earliest days of the movies, how the first moving pictures were actually shot, how the first film makers responded to the new medium untrammeled by rules and conventions--and turned a crude, fumbling gimmick into art.EXTRA 10 % discount with code: EXTRA
