520 | |a THE DEVIL'S PLAYGROUND is part of the film retrospective UNSEEN CINEMA that explores long-forgotten American experimental cinema. Edwin S. Porter's narrative films demonstrate a mastery of experimental image-making techniques. He embellishes their fantasies through a strategic use of dissolves, multiple exposures, matte shots, and other "trick" effects. As with pioneer filmmakers, the visual pleasures derived from these cinematic manipulations have sadly been unacknowledged by previous histories of avant-garde film. --BRUCE POSNER. 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. 35mm 1.33:1 black and white silent with music, 18fps 8:46 minutes.
