episodes of D. W. Griffith's Hollywood
Movie director David Wark Griffith is considered the unquestioned pioneer who, way back in the 1910s, invented the fundamentals of movie storytelling as we know them today. But by the early 1930s, talking pictures had killed off the aging director's already-fading career. He was given a radio series by NBC in 1933 in which to comment on the industry he helped create, and reminisce about his glory days in early Hollywood, barely 20 years earlier.
