A lot (and I mean A LOT) of self-proclaimed liberals and progressives and general "not a racist bone in my body" declare that they can look past the racism of BIRTH OF A NATION to see the art because they are immune to propaganda. While parroting debunked propaganda about what the film "invented"

Liedtke was wasted in dramatic roles. His great talent was aristocratic, debauched and slightly tipsy charm and it was a shame to cast him in anything but bedroom farces.

Pre-1915 and particularly pre-1910 movies can be a hard sell because the star system had not yet been established and it's sometimes hard to attract interest without big names. But there are so many other delights.

People expect comedies to be hits with 1900s plots and they don't even choose the really unique plots. Remake THE ? MOTORIST in which a motoring couple run over a traffic cop and escape into outer space

Buel loved his doors and windows. This take-us-back-in-time shot from THE MYSTERY OF THE SLEEPING DEATH, for example.

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.

There are some beautiful shots in the film, including this extended scene of Pryce bolting out the window and being fired upon as the siblings watch. There is debate as to whether this film was directed by George Melford or Kenean Buel. This shot screams Buel.

Le bang! Le bang bang! Hurhurhur! And thank goodness stunts got a little safer so they didn't have to keep dropping their leading man onto a rolling train (you can tell from the dropped hat that this was not a slow train sped up via undercranking, they just had the poor man jump!)

Speaker Johnson really wondered how we expect the millionaires in Congress to live off only $174k without a little stock trading. That's why I pledge to dedicate time in Congress to teaching the 98% of Congress that isn’t from the working class about how to make ends meet, no insider trading needed.

"A lot of these [Project 2025] authors came from the first Trump administration," said @dgraham.bsky.social. "So their idea was to put together this vision for sort of maximalist executive power. ... To establish a very socially conservative vision of America."

I recently raised the importance of defence sovereign capability in Dame Chi Onwurah's debate on technology sovereignty. In a turbulent world it's ever more important that we develop robust supply chains that safeguard the UK's ability to protect itself and keep citizens safe.
