	One hundred Years of Film Sizes. Almost one hundred film widths and perforations were experimented with.
		Whereas film equipment has undergone drastic changes in the course of a century it is a little miracle that 35mm has remained the universally accepted film size.
		Films from 10 to 15 meter lengths in special containers were for rent from Edison depots or by mail.
		An optimum use of the film width was obtained by expanding the image and reducing the size of the perforations on both sides.

		I haven't read the Theodor Fontane on which this film is based, which for all I know has a radical design similar to that of its film adaptation.
		There is a stillness to the film that surrounds its characters and make their line readings register as if echoing across a vast space.
