People 100 years ago really sat through 5 and a half hours of a silent film?
>>222768631Nah. They had intermissions just like with plays and concerts.Also you could smoke indoors back then which helped you to relax.
you never went to the Opera? or Ballet, those plays are really long
When /tv/ was a board for white menthat and picture related were considered essential entry level viewings
>>222768631some incredible sets and revolutionary (heh) cinematography in here
>>222768631There wasn’t much else to do.
I just looked up the 4k blu-ray remux of this film and it's 175 GB.
>>222768631what are the best napoleon movies? I'm obsessed with him rn
>>222768631Movie goers back then would bring cigars, cigarettes, and flasks of gin
>>222768631They had NOTHING happening, dude. Read "The Jungle", life was dogshit for all of these people. Of course they sat in the theater for 6 hours, it was probably the coolest day of their lives.
>>222768631No Napoleon movie will ever top Waterloo (1970)
>>222768631They played on a loop and people would come and go as they pleased. It didn't mattered if you missed the first two hours because the movie would restart once it finished. Hitchcock and Psycho ended this practice.
