		Films shot by individuals and firms, and restricted to their private consumption are not included in these figures.
		The Indian film archives, the largest non-western repository, is also among the most notorious at preservation; less than 10% of all films made before 1931 (some estimate as low as 1%) of Indian films still exist.
		Indian films, a very large segment of the yearly film copy market, have an average of 300 prints in circulation per film because of the much larger size of cinema viewing halls, and the lack of "multiplexes" for shows on several screens.

	Microfilmmaker Magazine - Special Film Critique: Unseen Cinema, Pg. 1
		Some departed this Hollywood that they had helped birth and pursued film projects at other ports of call, while others stayed in the system and made their avant-garde films over the weekends.
		Some of the films are excessively long, like the intentionally-silent Portrait of a Young Man that drags on for an hour-long look at close-ups of water and is designed to get you to become introspective.
		This film pointed out that the studio dream of starting out as an extra and then becoming a star was a largely unrealistic and potentially life-shattering.

	Amazon.com: The Movies Begin - A Treasury of Early Cinema, 1894-1913: DVD: Film Preservation Associates,British Film ... (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-03)
		The last disc has a film of the wonderful French comedian Max Linder, it's a shame that he never regained his pre-war popularity because his comedy is spurisingly modern and he has obvious charisma.
		There are quite a few films from the infancy of cinema, when the camera was used to create scenes that are really the equivalent of postcards, where a still camera would have produced the same effect.
		Film notes included on the disc itself are very interesting, but the edition as a whole simply yields for a booklet which could accompany you while watching.

	Film of the Year: 1913: Lock Up Your Daughters
		Tucker spends too much time establishing how the crimes are committed, but the latter third of the film, split in parallel action between the younger sister’s desperate attempts escape her tormentors and Mary’s desperate crusade to get the evidence, bring in the cops and rescue her, builds some welcome suspense.
		But the fact that the same (or similar) technology is shown to both help the criminals achieve their evil ends and the detective bust them reminds me of current questions about the NSA warrant-less wiretaps to nail suspected terrorists and...oops, I told you this film could inspire a book or two.
		Note: I viewed this Film of the Year on VHS (thank you Movie Madness for having this in stock) so the images this week result from a Google search.

		Griffith's film was effective propaganda for a revival of the KKK.
		But makers of "documentary" works are generally expected to be as objective as possible, and Moore is unappologetic about shaping his works (by his choice of interviewees, questions to them, narrative, and editing) in supporting his opinions.
		His films might be called editorialized or diatribes, but they have also been called the P word — propaganda.

	Cleopatra, the Egyptian Queen (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-03)
		In terms of the Roman film, Cleopatra is featured in a plethora of blockbusters, representing the foreign femme fatale in the extreme.
		In Cecil B. DeMille's 1934 depiction of her, this Egyptian queen is manipulative, feisty, exotic, and fully aware of how her feminine wiles ought to be used to achieve her goals, which Maria Wyke describes as a "spectacle of erotic seductions as much as military maneuvers" (89).
		Cleopatra rises from her state as a victim at the beginning of the film to one of the most powerful women in the world, only to be defeated by love at the end of the film.

	Charles Chaplin at Classic Movie Stars
		In his 1915 film, The Tramp, Chaplin starred for the first time with Edna Purviance, who would play his version of an ideal woman in every one of his films for the next eight years.
		In most of his films, Chaplin performed one kind deed after another for the sake of the women he adored, but he ultimately understood that they could never be expected to fall in love with a Tramp like him.
		After releasing his last great film, Limelight (1952), Chaplin who had never applied for U.S. citizenship was in England when he was informed that he might not be permitted back into the States because of his alleged leftist views.

	Bruce Beresford : HBO Films: And Starring Pancho Villa As Himself
		We're filming in one of the biggest haciendas in Mexico, which is more or less, a ruin these days.
		During the Mexican Revolution in 1913, Pancho Villa - one of the leading Mexican revolutionaries against the government - was running very short of money, and he wanted publicity; he wanted goodwill spread about him, because he was getting bad press in America.
		He interviewed Charles Rosher, who was the cameraman of that film, because Rosher was still alive in the '70s; elderly, but sharp.

		The quote on the front laserdisc jacket compares the film's brillance to The Birth of a Nation, but Griffith was expert at introducing characters and establishing them in the first few moments.
		While the film has the upbeat ending of the novel, the laserdisc from Image Entertainment ($40) also includes an alternate 1 minute, 20 second unhappy ending that Nordisk made for the Russian market.

		The first three show what ruinous damage can afflict the picture image even if a reel survives, while the final three reveal the stunning destruction the film reels suffer--it is doubtful any passable film images can be duplicated from these reels.
		Far too many of America's films have already been lost, yet so much of this vital heritage remains and can still be saved.

		It is now lost, but featured Anna Nilsson as Eliza and Hal Clemmons as Legree, and may have been directed by Sidney Olcott, who made over 100 silent films beginning with the earliest adaptation of Ben-Hur in 1907.
		It may be that our best access to the movie is the Motion Picture Story Magazine, which ran a "Photoplay Story" on the film in its January 1914 issue.
		And we probably have to discount Schiller's emphasis on how characters sounded -- unless the film's titles made the same point, those movie-goers couldn't have "heard" Marie St. Clare speak in a dialect "southern" enough to make her sound like one of the fler characters in the text Stowe wrote.
