Description: "what's wrong with the movies?" is a question that apparently haunted Mr Tamar Lane.its a unique insight into the forgotten cultural controversies of the emerging technology & art form, as viewed by one very, very, salty cinephile.a pretty enjoyable read into the zeitgeist of early Hollywood.the fact that he's so crotchety throughout makes it even more fun.check out the photos for the table of contents, as well as a few excerpts (i just flipped to random pages, i didn't cherrypick. he's grumpy on every page).the entire time i was reading this, i kept imagining that he was angry at the world that his parents thought it would be cute to give him a pun for a name. still my running theory. cloth hardcover, once black, faded to brown at spine and edges. edges of spine worn a bit. text block tight and clean, with slight yellowing. crack on inside of back cover at joint. book is about 8 x 6 x 1".254 pages. check out my ebay store for listings of other antique and rare books from my personal collection.
