I often feel like this.

By the way, those red question marks seem to pop off my phone screen.

Wow, that's an attention-getting one, huh? Now I want to see this film.

A print does exist at the Netherlands' EYE Institute, but I dunno if it's been digitally transferred yet. There's one review on IMDb but it's by F Gwynplaine, so...

I always feel like this.

Once again, the Swedes knock it out of the park with this wonderful poster for Dancing Mothers:

Not sure if this one has been posted, but I saw this today and thought it was pretty badass.

That's a good one.

That illustration is about as over-the-top as Henry B. Walthall's performance in that. (That surreal interview scene—wow! )

Skeleton needs dental work, though. (Can it afford some implants?)

Hey, I'd thought I'd seen this film, but I didn't it remember being 6 reels. Maybe I'm mixing this up with another film, or maybe I'm just totally wrong, and never have seen it all along.

Yeah, it is a six-reeler feature film. You may have seen parts of it separately (like that interview scene I was referring to).
