Motion Picture Directors From the Research Paper

Everybody's Sweetheart is well-known for the fact that it presented 1920 audiences with a storyline to remember and to fantasize about, given that people (those in the South particularly) were going through a difficult period and many of them hoped to accomplish themselves both from a material and from a social point-of-view. In spite of his expertise in analyzing movies, Sandburg cannot help but being visibly impressed by this motion picture.

The Mask of Zorro has, according to Sandburg, triggered waves of appreciation from a movie-crazed American public. People could not ignore all the intriguing elements in the motion picture, especially considering that most of them were innovative for the 1920s. Sandburg's appreciation of the movie is obvious through the fact that he recognizes the film as one of Douglas Fairbanks' best motion pictures, both as a producer and as an actor.Film audiences from the start of the century were yet to be experienced in analyzing a motion picture or in engaging in critical analysis of the respective movie. Movie reviewers had to go through great efforts in order to express an opinion that would be as impartial as possible, given that they too were impressed from seeing the series of breath-taking elements that directors involved in their films.
