Mr Film Studies

Nigel's course today reached : DW Griffith The Birth Of a Nation. Appallingly racist, a great box office success, which went on to fund MGM. Sergei Eisenstein's Battleship Potemkin. The Odessa steps scene is said to have provided Francis Bacon with inspiration for his Screaming Popes.
Everybody seems to be enjoying themselves so much Nigel will have to do more.
