The film makes a home in your brain and the only cure is to see it again.
This is a must-see and one of the best documentaries - and films - of this year.
It is an exhilarating, distressing, funny and profound film, with one of the more memorable film scores in years,
Washington, le président Mac Kinley adressant son message (1897) President MacKinley had countless documents of him filmed, which is great for historians of today as you've at least got actual video of a President. This footage here was shot by the Lumiere company on their visit to Washington. The crowd is enormous, which is the first thing that pops out from this movie. The second thing is the fact that the camera is pretty far back so we can never get a good look at MacKinley, although it's obvious to see where he's standing. For the most part this here is a good film and one worth watching simply because of the grand view of getting to see the large crowd. It's too bad we don't get a better look at the President but it's fascianting to see what kind of crowd this drew compared to today. Not to mention the safety issues.
