"The Big Show". This is an "Our Gang" (Little Rascals) 2 reel silent film from 1923, by Pathe/Roach. My film is on super 8mm with a music background.

Cool Janice! I love that movie too. I 'reel' time-capsule from the 70's. Very nice print, and the colors look about how I remember them being a long time ago.

And the song is great too!

James, the actual color on "The Goodbye Girl" is turning and is a little redder then captured in the pics...but I'm having some projector filters made that should make what is projected on the screen closer to the color in the pics.

Coulodn't resist, I had to watch "Warlords of Atlantis" (4X400ft, but it's one of those "short 400's" per reel, so that it actually fits onto 2X600ft, approximately 68 minutes.

A great cutdown of the film. Little romantic subplot, lots of monsters, lots of McClure struting about. Just LOVE those 70's "B" movies!

Hey Vidar, the last time I saw "He Who Finds a Friend, Finds a Treasure", I was 14 and on holiday with my parents in France. A travelling 16mm cinema set up and screened it outside at the camp site.
Unfortunately it was screened in French with no subtitles so I didn't fully understand it. I won't say any more about that as Laksmi will tell me off for going "off topic"!
I have been watching some 16mm travelogues.One was LPP and promoting San Diego(circa 1984) and the other was a nice Technicolor print about Hawaii from the 1960s.

This is one of the strangest of the DW Griffith films I've seen. The Curtain Pole is a 1909 American comedy film. The film was made by the American Mutoscope and Biograph Company when it and many other early film studios in America's first motion picture industry were based in Fort Lee, New Jersey

I have no idea where this Standard 8mm print comes from (any info appreciated). It is not a Blackhawk print. It is contrasty. Who cares, it's primitive and I still like it. Griffith is experimenting with stop motion and reverse photography here where the carriage moves backwards at the end of the film. I'm sure audiences of the time (1909!!) were enthralled. I was sort of enthralled myself to see this ancient comedy especially the lead character who is sort of an absurdist Dada clown who takes us on his crazy chase. My favorite parts are the closer shots of the clown,pictured, wrestling with the curtain pole and the chase scenes with the carriage. What this film is about is anyones guess. I would venture to say that this an early experiment by the master filmmaker, DW Griffith.

WAS "Who's On First" the first to be shown? A pity you didn't have a Walton release of Dr Who. Then Who would have been on first [Eek!]

[Eek!]

I'll have to get some of my older prints out to see if there's any that have faded. Some of the images look pretty good still on here.

I love the smell of film in the morning.

Richard,it certainly is an early D.W.Griffith comedy (a rarity!) starring Mack Sennett. I have an exellent Blackhawk copy from which I am certain this was copied.

Panayotis-thanks for the info. Are you saying that my print is most likely a Blackhawk print or that it was duped from the Blackhawk ? Also, is the lead character, the gent in the top hat, Mack Sennett? If so, that's a surprise and a cool tidbit of film history.

Janice-Chimp the Chump- won an Oscar for this performance btw [Big Grin]
