The Hollywood Series: A Celebration of American Silent Film spawned many fine series including The Unknown Chaplin Series, Buster Keaton: A Hard Act to Follow, D.W. Griffith - Father of Film: Harold Lloyd: The Third Genius and more. Gill passed away a few years agon, but Kevin Brownlow continues to create and direct new projects like Cecil B. De Mille: America Epic. This collection listed are ONLY available on VHS. They are also getting rare to find and are mainly available used from private owners.
