Feature Summary- International: Cinema around the world is integrated throughout the text, from Danish producer Ole Olsen in 1906 (chapter 2), through the modern film industries of India and South America (chapter 26).
- Over 900 Film Frames: Film History is illustrated almost entirely with frame enlargements--images photographed from the filmstrip itself. This ensures that what a reader studies on the page actually appears on the screen.
- Coverage of Documentary, Experimental, and Animated Films: Film History includes a separate chapter on each of these important styles.
- Cultural and Political Influences: Each Part and chapter opens with a summary of important political events of the period.
