My conclusion from all of this is that we need to watch a lot more pre-1915 films.

It's worth noting that I appealed and won removal of Bluesky "adult content" labels from each of the GIFs in the thread I quoted. However, Bluesky forgets the appeal every time the material is posted, so I would have to appeal each and every time I post.

L'ATLANTIDE (France)

The film is clunky, melodramatic, overacted and quite sloppy in places in an apples to apples comparison with other features and epics of the period. The problem is that very very few people watch 1912-1915 features and epics. Or BOAN itself, in many cases. It's a Blue Stone of Galveston situation.

Max Linder in the comedy TROUBLES OF A GRASS WIDOWER (1908). When a husband quarrels with his wife, she goes home to mother and leaves him to keep house for himself. Humorous struggles ensue. (This is a BREADWINNER subtweet)

Not all the short cuts were on purpose. Pola Negri wanted to keep her long hair but a studio hairdresser burned a large portion off by mistake and they had to scramble, inventing the "tulip cut" before she adopted a more standard bob.

Ford Sterling shoots the Keystone Cops and then comically chokes himself. Mind you, I can post a serious murder from the same era and not hear a peep

Used to be you could go to the movies and be entertained by the antics of a little black poodle. RETVRN

THE WIZARD OF OZ (1939) was the third cinematic reboot of Oz. The Selig company brought it to the screen in 1910 (after L Frank Baum lost his shirt on a multimedia presentation that included some filmed sequences), Baum relaunched in the mid-1910s, Larry Semon did his worst in the 1920s.

When someone suggests that I, an early film person who regularly dives into the context of pre-WWI cinema, don't modern cinematic universes because I can't handle the homework...

The impacts of sexual assault affect large swaths of a person's life that doesn't end in a few hours. It doesn't mean that you're never going to succeed in life. It does mean that it is a new normal that you will have to find.
