Lost 19th century film by Méliès discovered at the Library | Timeless Library conservators recently made a startling discovery in a batch of decaying film reels -- a long-lost 1897 film by early cinema icon George Méliès. The French magician-turned-filmmaker's

"The 45-second film, made around 1897, was the first appearance on film of what might be called a robot"

HELL. YES.

When you realize that Warner Brothers said "Delete that shit" and the BBC chose to keep it...baby this is why I'm not debating nothing about modern racism. Full grown adults made a lot of choices

Evening viewing recommendation? Before it leaves the Criterion Channel, watch William Richert's WINTER KILLS (1979).

KPOP DEMON HUNTERS deserves to be on Criterion. But while you’re at it, Netflix, a team-up with Lionsgate to do a 4K release of the KNIVES OUT trilogy wouldn’t suck either.

Jacaranda trees in bloom lining Fairfax in South Hollywood, CA

I consider this a very mediocre picture but I’m posting it today in contrast to yesterday’s amazing pic as a test. I paired yesterday’s with Malcolm X and those pics never do numbers. Methinks the folks on this platform need a lot more Malcolm in their lives. Ninnys.

Modern actors spending months getting shredded for a film when their classic film counterparts just tighted their belts as much as possible, inhaled, and refused to take another breath while the camera was on.

You're right! Hadn't noticed that before, but they're missing a lot of great flicks not doing much animation

When anyone from SCTV dies it’s like 30 people have died. Every character they created was as alive as anyone else you’ve ever met.
