Atlantis. 1913. Directed by August Blom.

(1/16/00-1/17/00)

This was another film shown with the intertitles cut out. It was impossible to follow. What I saw was interesting for its depiction of life before World War I. There was interesting acting from the female characters and a very impressive shipwreck sequence which must have been especially poignant in the original showings as 1913 was the year of the Titanic disaster.

There was also a very interesting use of superimpositions in this film.
