Solidrariol Am I Missing Something?

HottWwjdIam There is just so much movie here. For some it may be too much. But in the same secretly sarcastic way most telemarketers say the phrase, the title of this one is particularly apt.

PiraBit if their story seems completely bonkers, almost like a feverish work of fiction, you ain't heard nothing yet.

Catherina If you're interested in the topic at hand, you should just watch it and judge yourself because the reviews have gone very biased by people that didn't even watch it and just hate (or love) the creator. I liked it, it was well written, narrated, and directed and it was about a topic that interests me.

For their time these films have more flair than most of the film of their era due to the director keeping the camera moving, which still wasn't normal for 1900. Those interested in how Paris looked back in the day would certainly be interested in these.

Polaris_DiB Again, this film is only really interesting from the perspective of history, not entertainment nor art. In fact, specifically this film shows the limited experimentation the creators had when it shows a mostly out-of-focus image of movement upwards through the Eiffel Tower. It doesn't really give a lot of information or show the surrounding area well enough to be a completely successful experiment in what the makers were trying to do.However, it is a very early dolly shot, so to speak, and that counts for something. Furthermore, I can't help but point out the importance of the Eiffel Tower towards modernity and industry, and how those tie into the development of film as a whole. Early film was often concerned with machinery, mostly because early film was machinery. A lot of these images we take for granted are a key part of the Industrial Revolution, and this film helps recognize that aspect.--PolarisDiB

boblipton A close-up examination of the girders of the Eiffel Tower in Paris. The view is varied somewhat by occasional glimpses of buildings, warehouses in the early sections and at the end of this two-minute film, ten seconds of the buildings surrounding the Champs de Mars.
