It's a Print!: Detective Fiction from Page to ScreenWilliam Reynolds, Elizabeth Ann Trembley Popular Press, 1994 - 235 էջ The mechanistic age of the twentieth century has required a mechanized medium for expression: the production of filmdependent from the start on machines such as cameras, projectors, lights, and now more heavily reliant on computers, sensitive films, miniaturization, and sophisticated sound recording devices - has flowered in this century not only as a means of popular entertainment, but as a critically acclaimed art form.
