An overall study of the impact of the influx of European filmmakers to the American film industry (1922-1931). Includes an investigation of why, despite the high quality of much of their American work, most of the directors themselves, and later critics, felt that they had somehow 'failed' to establish themselves in Hollywood. Directors discussed are Victor Sjöström, Mauritz Stiller, Benjamin Christensen, Paul Fejos, Ernst Lubitsch, F.W. Murnau, and Paul Leni.
