The book would have benefited from a more knowledgeable editor who could have challenged some of Robb’s statements of fact and corrected several of his faux pas.

The book also comes with a supplementary DVD-R of representative exerpts from 27 silent era films, both short and feature films, which will help the reader acquaint themselves with silent stars (well-known and obscure), specific silent films, film genres and storytelling techniques.
