Denmark, 1910-1912: She! (1x3)

Air date: Aug 01, 1986

Burch looks at the incredible explosion of filmmaking in Denmark where mature cinema was born at a time when French and American films were simple melodramas. The earliest Danish film stars - Asta Nielsen and Urban Gad - played in remarkable films which were innovative in the technical aspects of lighting, camera angles and editing.
