It was pre good and the cgi i was solid

Give Nosferatu (1922) a chance. Specially before the Robert Eggers remake comes out.

Kino af

Nosferatu

Infinity war

If we talk about features then I guess the Story of Kelly Gang because I wanted to see if they used the original armor (they did in some scenes but not Ned Kelly's). But it's short and incomplete. So I guess Birth of a Nation as homework once. Not an easy watch maybe 100 years ago it was very exciting. I think the oldest film that I enjoy is Nosferatu. These kind of movies aged better than romances and dramas.

Thanks user, I will do at some point. It's not that I don't want to watch old films, it's just I find things that appear alluring based on their limitations I guess.

Arrival of a Train at La Ciotat (1895)

Probably Late Spring by Ozu, love that ending so much

caligari

They used a series of electric shocks to make it look like he’s dancing when he is actually in horrible pain.

Those Weimars knew how to make movies.

German expressionism was the apex of kino

is that the one with the dad mourning his daughter finally moving out of the family home with the swell of music after he breaks down peeling an orange or something

EVERYONE in this thread can now claim to have seen the oldest film ever. OP posted it for you and you just watched the WHOLE thing.

It's an apple, but yeah, after he succumbs to his feelings it cuts to ocean waves and the music swells, it's beautiful.

I didn't open that gif tho loser

>pretty much everyone either disappeared or died shortly after

The actor was around 50

>Only ten days after filming, Sarah Whitley died at the age of 72. Louis Le Prince mysteriously vanished just before unveiling his new technology to the public.[4] Louis's son, Adolphe Le Prince, was discovered shot dead around two years after he testified about his father's inventions in court against Thomas Edison.[5]

L'Atalante (1934) is pretty good

EDISON'D

I'd say L'Inferno (1911), also but i dont really consider it a film.

>i dont really consider it a film
Negro what

why not

I watched Les Vampires and Famtomas, from 1910 or whenever the fuck they're from, and enjoyed the fuck out of both of em.

running time

His Girl Friday, holds up pretty good considering it's hard for me to watch movies made before 80's

>short films are not films

you're looking for the term "movie" or "feature". running time need not apply to "film".

This has to be bait

Except for the daughter whose fate is unknown. Shouldn't be impossible to track her down but it seems that nobody cared. There was a documentary about Le Prince however and the first film it was very interesting.

even the term "movie" can apply to shorts, "feature" is the only one that refers to running time

Roundhay Garden Scene
Just kidding, oldest movie I've seen is actual A Trip to the Moon, but it was mostly just because it's so historically significant. The oldest movies I'm willing to watch for entertainment are from the 1910's, anything before that is a little much for me though I may check them out for curiosities sake.

All quiet on the Western front

>Intolerance was made partly in response to criticism of Griffith's previous film, The Birth of a Nation (1915), which was criticized by the NAACP and other groups as perpetuating racial stereotypes and glorifying the Ku Klux Klan. It was not, however, an apology, as Griffith felt he had nothing to apologize for; in numerous interviews, Griffith made clear that the film's title and overriding themes were meant as a response to those who he felt had been intolerant of him in condemning The Birth of a Nation.
Griffith sounds fucking hilarious.

He also added an opening message to the first re-release of Birth
> A PLEA FOR THE ART OF THE MOTION PICTURE:
> We do not fear censorship, for we have no wish to offend with improprieties or obscenities, but we do demand, as a right, the liberty to show the dark side of wrong, that we may illuminate the bright side of virtue – the same liberty that is conceded to the art of the written word – that art to which we owe the Bible and the works of Shakespeare
> If in this work we have conveyed to the mind the ravages of war to the end that war may be held in abhorrence, this effort will not have been in vain.

It's still surreal to me that Dali had a significant part in the creation of a motion picture. I don't know why but that blows my mind.

Thomas Edison is my favorite serial killer.

One reason to be sad that Jodorovsky's Dune was never made he was supposed to have role in that too. A very expensive spoken role.

I like the horsey movie
