Slide, Anthony Silent Players: A Biographical and Autobiographical Study of 100 Silent Film Actors and Actresses
Lexington KY The University Press of Kentucky (c.2002) 0-8131-2249-X / 9780813122496 First Edition Hardcover Near Fine in Near Fine dj Illustrated by (dj design) Cheryl Conrad
[nice clean copy, with just a teensy bump to the bottom front corner; jacket shows only light surface wear, insignificant wrinkling at bottom of front panel]. (B&W photographs) Brief but often illuminating mini-biographies of 100 silent film players by this prominent and prolific film historian, whose insights (as he explains in his preface and a brief autobiographical essay) are often informed by his personal acquaintance and conversations with many of the people he writes about. (As he succinctly observes: "The silent players I have known were anything but silent.") The "vibrant and appealing personalities" discussed range from legendary stars like Lillian Gish, William S. Hart, Gloria Swanson, Mary Pickford and Douglas Fairbanks, to less-well-remembered performers such as Jetta Goudal, Charles Ray, Mary Brian, Jack Mulhall, etc. Some of the major personalities of the era are discussed in a brief chapter called "The Legends" (Lon Chaney, Charlie Chaplin, Greta Garbo, Buster Keaton, Rudolph Valentino) and there is also a group analysis of "The Vamps" (Theda Bara, Louise Glaum, Kitty Gordon, Olga Grey, Alice Hollister, Valeska Suratt). Altogether a charming and highly readable book, and somewhat sad, too; as the author states at the end of his introduction: "As I complete the manuscript, I am painfully aware that all my friends from the silent era ... are gone. With [this book], I say goodbye to my friends and to a part of my life that has meant so much to me and that can never be repeated."
