There have been several notable examples of this pen-camera method of narration, but \u003ci\u003eThe Forgotten Village\u003c\/i\u003e is unique among them in that Steinbeck wrote the text before a single picture was shot. The book and the movie from which \u003ci\u003eThe Forgotten Village\u003c\/i\u003e was made have a continuity and a dramatic growth not to be found in typical documentary films of the time.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e From this wealth of pictures, 136 photographs were selected for their intrinsic beauty and for the graceful harmony with which they accompany Steinbeck’s text. This new script-photograph technique of narration conveys its ideas with unexcelled brilliance and immediacy. In the hands of such master storytellers as Steinbeck and Kline, it makes the reader catch his breath.","brand":"Penguin Books","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":43380339376383,"sku":"9780143117186","price":22.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0452\/0886\/2873\/files\/9780143117186_s600x595.jpg?v=1777307479","url":"https:\/\/massivebookshop.com\/products\/9780143117186","provider":"MASSIVE BOOKSHOP","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
