520 |a THE DEVIL'S PLAYGROUND is part of the film retrospective UNSEEN CINEMA that explores long-forgotten American experimental cinema. Edwin S. Porter was an engineer and cameraman who adapted the brilliant trickery of French filmmakers such as Georges Méliès to American pictures. This was an imitation of "Reve a la Lune" (Pathe, 1905). To see how quickly technique advanced in the silent days, look at "When the Clouds Roll By". --KEVIN BROWNLOW. One of the most influential American film pioneers, Edwin S. Porter is remembered primarily for his groundbreaking story films, "The Life of an American Fireman" (1903) and "The Great Train Robbery" (1903). He had an important career as a producer-director for Rex Motion Picture Company (1911-1913) and Famous Players Film Company (1913-1915). --PAUL SPEHR . white-color tints silent with music 18fps 8:22 minutes.
