Mornings in the Dark by Graham Greene

Twenty years before the celebrated films "The Third Man", "The Fallen Idol" and "Brighton Rock", Graham Greene was deeply involved with cinema as critic, essayist and polemicist. Described by Basil Wright as "a child of the film age", Greene became one of the most perceptive, trenchant film critics of the 1930s, with first-hand experience as screen writer, producer, adaptor and performer, and a considerable knowledge of camera technique. A selection of his film criticism appeared as "The Pleasure Dome" in 1972. "Mornings in the Dark" restores the many items omitted from that volume, bringing together his film essays, interviews, radio talks, film scripts, several short stories, film treatments and letters, many not previously published in book form. David Parkinson's introduction describes the place of film in Greene's career. He adds three appendices, including one of film projects that failed to materialise.
