The Cinematic Artist and the Literary Lion
Technological advances, coupled with greater affluence, enabled the motion picture industry to emerge in the United States. Drawing on photographic representations, scientific acumen, and the commercial genius of individuals like Thomas Alva Edison, American cinema began to flourish. As American cinema flourished in the early twentieth century, its pace, style, and tenor increasingly influenced other popular cultural venues, including literature. American cinema remained in its infancy, largely unformed and lacking artistry. As a young writer who had experienced the horrors of World War I, Ernest Hemingway honed his own literary skill, aspiring to a clean, minimalist, cinematic-like approach, but one that included complex psychological analyses befitting an age when psychoanalysis was increasingly in vogue. In 1930 D. W. Griffith sought to produce another epic, Abraham Lincoln, a talkie starring Walter Huston. Drawing on Porter's techniques, Griffith began to refine American cinema, assisted by cameraman G. W. Bitzer. The reviews by critics proved mixed, at best, and audiences also responded tepidly.
