George Arliss - The Man Who Played God

Informationen zum Autor Robert M. Fells has been a vintage film enthusiast since childhood. He has a B.A. in History from Iona College and a Juris Doctor from George Mason University. Klappentext Traces Arliss's life and times through his film work, providing a thoroughly researched and entertaining view of one of the most important, yet neglected figures in film history.
