I am embarrassed to admit I was thinking of Sunshine (2007) instead of Solaris. Stupid titles.

I am most disappointed that I let possessed down.

You may now resume your silence.

Oh, Sunshine is legal in my state. My state only bans foreign films.

I believe it was one of those humor jokes, like what you see on the Tele.

“Get over violence, madness and death? What else is there?”

Wtf?

Yeah, it was a joke but there’s some truth to it. A fascist county in my state has actually tried to ban a couple foreign films before, but they were ruled unconstitutional, thankfully.

I am sorry if I am breaking any rules here, but I’d like you to get back on topic, this current conversation belongs in another thread

When’s something gonna happen?

You’re not. It’s your thread, and as the OP, you have the right to ask. 😃

Anyway, what currently lost silent film would you most like to see? Mine would be London After Midnight. There’s a reconstruction of it using stills, but would be nice to see the actual film.

A classic lost film. It is very sad it’s lost. Hopefully maybe some guy will have the footage on some kind of VHS or something. (Okay, that’s unlikely but I wish that’s the case)

I’d like to see fury of the demon. A film that causes people to suddenly become violent? Count me in

There’s always a chance a foreign print will turn up somewhere, as what happened with the lost Metropolis footage.

Never heard of that one. I’m intrigued!

There was a documentary about it a few years ago with the same name. Supposedly it was a super disturbing film and was only screened a few times because at all the screenings the audience suddenly became unexplicably violent.

I just did a little research on this documentary. Looks like it may actually be a pseudo-documentary, and this madness-inducing lost film never actually existed.

That’s a story that also fascinates me, but it’s definitely also fake. Fury of the Demon is only probably fake.
