	Film History Before 1920
		In the early years of cinema, film producers were worried that the American public could not last through a film that was an hour long, thereby delaying the advent of feature films (60-90 minutes in length) in the US.
		As film production increased, cinema owner William Fox was one of the first (in 1904) to form a distribution company (a regional rental exchange), that bought shorts and then rented them to exhibitors at lower rates.
		Their main goal, to stifle up-and-coming independent film makers, was accomplished by raising admission prices, limiting censorship by cooperating with regulatory bodies, and preventing film stock from getting into the hands of non-members.

	Deliverance (1919) (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-13)
		This film is the life story of Helen Keller, made with her active participation.
		This film does not dwell on the central irony of Helen Keller's life: namely that, in order for her to interact with the world, another person (Anne Sullivan) had to dedicate her own eyes and ears to Helen Keller's purposes.
		Also, because this is a silent film, we are all necessarily deafened along with Ms Keller, and cannot fully grasp the isolation of her own silent existence within the world of hearing people (as this entire film is set in silence).
