In America, We Witness The Birth Of Hollywood, Circa 1910, Where Film Quickly Became A Powerful Industry And D. W. Griffith Put American Cinema On The Map; Later, Charlie Chaplin And Buster Keaton Developed A New Language Of Visual Comedy While Eccentrics Like Erich Von Stroheim And Cecil B. Demille Turned Cinema Into A High Art Form And Show Biz Respectively, And Sex Symbols Like Rudolph Valentino And Greta Garbo Heated Up The Screens. Meanwhile, In Europe, German Directors Such As Ernst Lubitsch And Fritz Lang Were Establishing Their Careers And Russian Greats Eisenstein And Pudovkin Were Already Revolutionizing A Nascent Art Form.
