Thanks for the movie tip!

It's well worth a watch if you're into film history.

[–] victorz@lemmy.world 3 points 1 month ago (1 children)

I'm kind of not, but I'm kind of into film and kind of into history in general, so it might be cool. 😁

It's pretty cool.

While interesting as an important piece of early movie history, the movie itself isn't really anything great. The visuals are interesting, but the story is really badly structured and told.

Eh, I enjoyed it.

I also enjoyed the bizarre version that came out in the 80s.

I bet it is. There's a certain charm to older stuff though, IMO. I bet I won't come out empty-handed in the end. 😁

Try it for sure, it's for free on YouTube!
