Praised as the "best modern survey of the silent period" (New Republic), this indispensable history tells you everything you need to know about American silent film, from the nickelodeons in the early 1900s to the birth of the first "talkies" in the late 1920s. The author provides vivid descriptions of classic pictures such as The Birth of a Nation, Intolerance, Sunrise, The Covered Wagon, and Greed, and lucidly discusses their technical and artistic merits and weaknesses. He pays tribute to acknowledged masters like D. W. Griffith, Charlie Chaplin, Buster Keaton, Douglas Fairbanks, Mary Pickford, and Lillian and Dorothy Gish, but he also gives ample attention to previously neglected yet equally gifted actors and directors. In addition, the book covers individual genres, such as the comedy, western gangster, and spectacle, and explores such essential but little-understood subjects as art direction, production design, lighting and camera techniques, and the art of the subtitle. Intended for all scholars, students, and lovers of film, this fascinating book, which features over 150 film stills, provides a rich and comprehensive overview of this unforgettable era in film history.Binding Type: Paperback

Good Puppy Toy with Gentle Squeaker – Soft, Cute & Budget-Friendly
Color: White - Giraffe, Color: White - Giraffe
I bought this squeaky plush toy set for my puppy Dio, and he was immediately drawn to it. The giraffe designs are adorable, and the squeakers kept him engaged and excited during playtime. But are not annoying for my family to hear while he plays. The material is soft and gentle on his mouth, which I really liked, especially for a puppy. It’s lightweight and easy for him to carry around, and it definitely kept him entertained.
One thing I would suggest for improvement is reinforcing the head or neck area which is what I did before even giving it to him to play because he is an aggressive dog. Adding extra stitching to those areas may make a big difference, especially for puppies who like to focus their chewing there. I believe this is a fun and engaging toy for our growing big puppy, especially for light to moderate chewers, Plus the price point makes it even more of a sweet gift idea.

Not suitable for all dogs, but they are cute.
Color: White&Grey&Brown
I probably over estimated their durability. My dogs tore these apart very quickly. Better for smaller dogs and ones that don't go primal over their toys!

Very poor quality but cute
Color: White&Grey&Brown
Poor quality…..one of the toys wasn’t sewn shut so stuffing was visible. One other toy was torn open by our small dog within five minutes of giving it to her and she is not an aggressive chewer. We are returning these items.

Add more for special occasions
Color: Holo Silver Glitter Spray（2oz）
I love this, I have ordered several times for my daughter and I, it looks good if you just want to add a little touch of glitter in your hair for an everyday look or if you’re going out at night, you can add a little more to your clothes and skin. You don’t need to spray a lot, the can lasts us awhile and we use it pretty much every day.
