No other silent film director has been so extensively studied as D. W. Griffith. However, only a small group of his more than five hundred films had been the subject of a systematic analysis. Now, for the first time in film studies, the complete creative output of Griffith - from 'Professional Jealousy '(1907) to 'The Struggle' (1931) - is explored in this multi-volume collection of contributions from an international team of leading scholars in the field. Created as a companion to the ongoing retrospective held by the Pordenone Silent Film Festival, 'The Griffith Project 'is now an indispensable guide to his work. This is the final volume of the project.
This volume meticulously catalogues the films produced by D. W. Griffith between 1919 and 1946, offering a comprehensive overview of a pivotal era in his directorial career. As the tenth and final volume of 'The Griffith Project,' this work draws upon contributions from an international team of leading scholars to systematically analyze Griffith's complete creative output during this period. The book serves as an indispensable guide, complementing the retrospective held by the Pordenone Silent Film Festival, and provides in-depth exploration of films ranging from his later silent works to those produced in the sound era.
As the final volume in a comprehensive project dedicated to D. W. Griffith's oeuvre, this book is positioned as an essential resource for film scholars and historians. Its scholarly contributions and detailed analysis are intended to provide a definitive guide to a significant portion of Griffith's filmography. The project as a whole has been recognized as indispensable for understanding the director's work, suggesting this volume continues that authoritative legacy.
