"eh, 100 pages on birth of a nation, but interesting when you think about what a mess the whole movie industry started out as. seems so much more fun then than now but im a romantic."
"I had no idea how much one man influenced what we see in movies today. Well worth reading as a history of early motion pictures, as well as the story of a fascinating and talented woman."
"Lillian Gish is one of the first movie stars and it's too bad that today's stars aren't more like her. She is graceful and elegant and a woman of character. This book was enjoyable because you got to know her, but also learn about the beginning of film making.
My only complaint is that a large portion of the book is truly a D.W. Griffith biography and not as much about Lillian. But on the flip side of that, when she stops talking about Griffith, the book isn't as interesting.
