So far sordid, louche, logorrheic, and lethal. Morbidly fascinating. I press on!

This has become a silent film, director and actor encyclopedia. Though not necessarily bad, it's more of source of references. A great place to go if you're going a deep dive into silent cinema and want to branch out. O'leary does makes an effort to do an international survey, so you'll hear all lot about European cinema

A somewhat shallow dive of the silent era. It's not so analytical as it is editorial. It's so far a chronological report of important names (e.g. films, directors, and actors). This book seems to be better suited for someone who is already familiar with the history and important events of the silent cinema and just wants to expand their knowledge of material.

Martyr! Is a book I never want to finish! I'm starting to slow down in an attempt to savor it. A sort of bad habit I have with my favorites. I love Akbar's writing and his expression. I love the ways in which he expands on Cyrus's life through the tales of those surrounding Cyrus. A very wholesome book, I adore <3
