America's Film Legacy

<br/><em>America's Film Legacy</em> is a guide to the most significant films ever made in the United States. Unlike opinionated Top 100 and arbitrary Best of lists these are the real thing: groundbreaking films that make up the backbone of American cinema. Some are well-known such as <em>Citizen Kane</em> <em>The Jazz Singer</em> <em>All Quiet on the Western Front</em> <em>The Birth of a Nation</em> and <em>Boyz n the Hood</em>. Others are more obscure such as <em>Blacksmith Scene</em> <em>The Blue Bird</em> <em>The Docks of New York</em> <em>Star Theatre</em> and <em>A Bronx Morning</em>. Daniel Eagan's beautifully written and authoritative book is for anyone who loves American movies and who wants to learn more about them.
