Item description from seller

[light surface wear and mild rubbing to covers]. (B&W and color photographs, advertisements) Elaborate program for a special presentation in Japan of D.W. Griffith's 1916 masterpiece INTOLERANCE, with musical accompaniment provided by the New Japan Philharmonic and a "Chorus/Special Choir for INTOLERANCE." The screening of the film was accompanied by "An Homage to D.W. Griffith," a 70mm Super Panavision production (projected at 30 frames per second) that was directed by American special effects cinematography wizard Richard Edlund, A.S.C. and featured a narration by the then 95-year-old Lillian Gish. Although much of the text of this accompanying program is in Japanese, there are bits of English here and there, such as the comments from various filmmakers (including Francis Ford Coppola, Fred Zinnemann and Martin Scorsese) about the importance of Griffith's film and/or its influence on their own film esthetics. About half of the 128-page book is devoted to a nicely laid-out frame-blowup version of the complete film, accompanied by the text of the original titles in both English and Japanese. An unusual item for the D.W. Griffith or Lillian Gish aficionado. The only thing I really don't understand is the significance of the small photo of El Coyote (a landmark Mexican restaurant in L.A.) on page 38; I've eaten there, but I doubt that Griffith ever did. [PLEASE NOTE that I have scanned only the central portion of this book's front cover, which because of its size (10" x 14-1/2") will not fit on my scanner bed; ALSO NOTE that because its cover design (gold decoration and printing on a black background) does not scan well. So, apologies for the lousy image.] **** NOTE that additional postage charges will be assessed for international shipping of this moderately heavy book; if this concerns you, please contact us for a shipping quote before placing your order. **** NOISBN.

Description de la boutique

Welcome to ReadInk (rhymes with "Dead Ink"), now in our 29th year of putting interesting books into the hands of interested people. **** Although I occasionally lapse into the "royal we" voice, ReadInk is just me, from one end of the pipeline to the other: buying, cataloging, customer service, shipping, you name it. Nothing here is automated, and every order or inquiry gets my prompt, personal attention. **** In describing a book's physical condition, I employ standard book-grading terminology (Good/Very Good/Fine, with various in-between gradations as appropriate) and do my best to avoid both excessive jargon and overly-finicky detail. My goal is always to present a faithful impression of a book's condition and appearance; significant flaws are individually noted, or if too numerous are succinctly summarized. **** Books are more than just physical objects, however: they are also intellectual/information vessels, and in almost every case I also include some information about a book's content in my listing, even if it's only a carefully chosen quotation from the dust jacket copy. (This may sound like a small thing, but take a look sometime and you'll see how amazingly few sellers bother with this, especially in the case of older fiction, which is one of my specialties.) **** I take great care (and pride) in my packaging of books for shipment; I figure it's my responsibility to ensure that each book I send out will withstand the rigors of the U.S. Postal System, and will reach its new owner in the same condition as advertised. (A sturdy box or an unbendable package is always involved.) **** That's all there is to ReadInk: just a guy who has loved books all my life (perhaps to excess) and entered the trade in my "middle years" to see what I could make of it. And I'm still finding out. **** To view my inventory exclusively, head over to my website -- www.readinkbooks.com. ---- Howard Prouty, prop.
