Description:
A Silent Siren Song traces the journey of Harry (1877-1956) and Roy Aitken (1882-1976), two brothers from the Wisconsin farmlands who pioneered the studio system of Hollywood's Golden Age. Combining production, distribution, and theater operations under their Triangle Film Corporation, the young upstarts created the most dynamic studio in Hollywood. They attracted the greatest directors and stars of the day -- including D.W. Griffith, Mary Pickford, Lillian Gish, Roscoe "Fatty" Arbuckle, and Douglas Fairbanks, Sr. -- and produced some of the most enduring films of the silent era, from the Keystone Cops to the defining cinematic epic Birth of a Nation.
