I really enjoyed reading this post, @ladyrebecca. I am passionate about cinema. With the reading I remembered some workshops I did a long time ago in which I soaked up the whole story and the backdrops of the beginning of the cinema. To the Lumière brothers we owe what has been called The Dream Machine. I think that in my video library I must have some short films that recall the beginnings of silent cinema. Chaplin ceased to be the man to be the character, those who transcend in time. Thank you for sharing.
