  The pantheon of big-budget, commercially successful films encompasses a range of genres, including biblical films, war films, romances, comic-book adaptations, animated features, and historical epics. This title considers the history of the American blockbuster - the large-scale, high-cost film - as it evolved from the 1890s.
