Situated on the Hudson River palisades, Fort Lee was a critical point in Gen. George Washington's unsuccessful attempts to stem the tide of British forces in 1776. The convenient and dramatic location also made Fort Lee the motion picture capital of America from 1910 until the mid-1920s. The borough's striking scenery and a ready labor force made it a lucrative filming site; talent scouts often waited outside local schools to ask children to appear in movies under production. At the peak of activity before World War I, seven studios and 21 companies produced the silent films that revolutionized entertainment around the world. Learn More...
