At the centre of the movement was Paul Rotha, director, producer, and at times enfant terrible. His book, chronological and often autobiographical, is filled with the stories, the letters, and the successes and failures of his work and the work of those around him. The result is entertaining and highly informative. ***The term documentary, as applied to film, was coined by Rotha's close friend, John Grierson. The documentary represents the creative testament of actuality and is especially concerned with the human condition. Rotha devotes a good deal of attention to Mr. Grierson and to such other influential contemporaries as Basil Wright, Robert J. Flaherty, Richard Griffith, Erick Knight, and Richard Winnington. ***He presents a detailed account of his own involvement in the Empire Marketing Board, which sponsored the only experimental workshop for film-making in the world at the time. And he discusses at some length the foremost documentary films of the day. His own include Contact, Rising Tide, Shipyard, The Face of Britain, and The Fourth Estate; others include Grierson's Drifters, Wright's Song of Ceylon and Night Mail, and Henry Watt's North Sea.' (Quote from inside of front of dustwrapper blurb). ***First impression of the true first edition, complete in its original dustwrapper.
