Filmes

Nursery Favorites
Sailor
Nursery Favourites is a marvel. Presented as a pre-recorded number (singers miming to a commercial record). One of the most fascinating film-sound documents of all times.
The Deaf Mute
Sergeant Giluley
Civil War drama of a Confederate spy who is captured by Union soldiers.
The Musical Blacksmiths
The Edison Quartet perform songs as blacksmiths. This was one of 200 projects produced using the Edison Kinetophone system. The Kinetophone was a fairly complex mechanical means of creating talking pictures. Unlike previous systems, in which actors would be required to lip sync to preexisting recordings on camera, the Kinetophone was one of the earliest film technologies to record sound at the same time as the image.
