Notes

General Note
Originally produced as 54 short films between 1896-1944.
Description
"A unique and wonderful collection of 54 rare and restored short films from the inflammable years of cinema. Movies were once made on nitrate film stock, which has a chemical composition similar to gunpowder and is highly vulnerable to fire and decay. This remarkable seven-hour anthology, organized in eight thematic groups over three DVDs, presents amazing treasures from the vaults of Lobster Films in Paris and from the Blackhawk Films Collection, rescued during half a century of gathering movies from the nitrate era."--Container.
System Details
DVD, all regions, stereo.
Language
Mostly silent with musical accompaniment, or in English or French, with English subtitles in yellow.
