Updated: 2022-11-18. "With the Movie Makers" by John Amid is a comprehensive exploration of the film industry, written in the early 20th century. This work merges elements of a guidebook with a historical account, offering insights into the intricacies of movie-making from both a technical and narrative perspective. The book aims to dissect the processes behind creating motion pictures, emphasizing how both good and bad films influence audiences and culture alike. The opening of the book discusses the general attitudes and experiences of viewers while watching movies, likening the passive reception to simply sitting and waiting for entertainment. Amid draws parallels between sports and film, illustrating how the emotions and loyalties felt during events shape individual identities. He stresses the importance of critical engagement with films, urging readers to analyze and appreciate the stories and techniques behind what they see on screen, setting the stage for a deeper understanding of the movie-making industry that will be explored in subsequent chapters.
