    I find lost media upsetting for the fact that one of my biggest fears is everything I've made being lost forever, whether due to misplacement, natural disaster, or people just throwing it away when I die because they didn't deem it as important as I have. I can't imagine the feeling of having something you put effort into being just callously thrown away or accidentally destroyed like this.

    I also want to point out that there are a lot of lost mummy films (14 to be exact). The earliest was at 1909 called la momie du roi.
    A 1911 verison only has one production still. Theres one in france and one from 1923. The good news is that a 1918. German film has been found its called eyes of the mummy ma and is pretty ridiculous in my opinion. You can find it in on youtube and its on a channel called a touch of evil

Surely somebody from the film industry would've wanted to have a copy. Like the take home prints with Phantom Of The Opera. There was so much popularity and praise at the time, it's hard to believe that none would survive the test of time.

    It's funny that you mentioned Nosferatu as it very nearly became a lost film itself. Bram Stoker's widow was unhappy that a film adaptation of the Dracula story had been produced without her permission so she had every available copy destroyed. IIRC, only one print managed to survive and it is from this print that every other copy derives.

    Recently saw this man in my dreams! I had sleep paralysis for the first time when I saw him. I first saw this drawing 2 years ago, but forgot about him, so I don’t know why I just now saw him.
    I was staying at a hotel with for a wedding that was out of my small suburban city.
    It was Sunday, the day we were going to leave, and I had woken up earlier only for my mom to tell me she would wake me up in forty five minutes and that I could go back to sleep, which I happily did.
    I fell asleep, which is surprising for me (sense I’m a insomnia patient) so this was already a red flag. Usually when I fall back asleep, I have nightmares.
    I was back in my hotel room, but instead my room was dark. It looked how it did when I had awoken at 4:00 AM because *_insomniaaa_* (i fell back asleep and awoke again to have my mom tell me to go back to sleep)
    I was laying on my back in bed (which I never do) and I couldn’t move, blink or speak.
    This dream was incredibly realistic.
    Suddenly, my sleepy peace was interrupted by someone (who looked like this man) on top of me screaming slurs and gibberish.
    Maybe it wasn’t gibberish, and it was some other language? At the time, I was learning Norwegian, so maybe my brain made up some Norsk words? Idk
    He was holding down my shoulders and he was not even 2 inches away from my face.
    After what felt like hours of me horrified and him screaming, he turned very calm.
    He then yelled loudly “45!”
    What creeps me out is that, all of his words before were gibberish- and somehow he just now said that number clearly, the fact that my mom said 45, and that I’m not the only one whose “seen” this man.
    I then jolted up as soon as he said 45.
    Usually I wake up and lay there after a nightmare, but this time I flew up and began to cry.

    I just realized this while watching this again; In Phantom of the Opera, the guy with the lantern might've come from the silent version, but possibly the title card is missing. A lot of times in silent films they'll have people talk, followed by a card popping up to show what's being said. I'm not sure why the card wouldn't be put in, since usually they'll recreate the title cards in cases of missing scenes, but it could be that they simply forgot or didn't realize that scene needed a title card. That's just my theory on the lantern man scene.

    Something that's worth mentioning is that the events of the Great Kanto Earthquake of 1923, as well as the firebombing campaigns of WWII meant that a huge number of Japanese films of the time are missing or lost altogether; there's an ongoing search for countless films from this era. One such pair of films which interests me quite a bit are "King Kong Appears in Edo" and "Japanese King Kong", or "Wakusei King Kong". These two films show that even as early as the 1930s, Japan was interested in trying to follow the trends of western cinema, even though it would be almost 30 years until King Kong finally appeared in a Japanese film which is still around today, 1962's "King Kong vs. Godzilla".

    I think there wasn't a thought to preserve most silent films because people were used to not being able to see something again once it was taken out of theaters as with most plays and musicals. There were very few people to appreciate and archive classic film until television and the home video market became a thing so most people were just concerned with the most current films of the time. That along with the precious metals in film and the cost of storage make it understandable why so much of it wasn't saved.

      Technically, that's incorrect.
      When Bram Stoker's estate took the makers to court for copyright infringement, they won and one of the orders from the ruling was that all copies of the film were to be destroyed. At the time, we thought all prints and negatives were. However, the film had moved across Europe and parts of North America by this point, and one was ultimately found in the hands of a private collector a few decades later - if I remember correctly. So the version of the film we've seen is the only copy that is believed to have survived.

Take for instance the 1932 RKO version of "The Monkey's Paw", directed by Wesley Ruggles, and (uncredited) Ernest B. Schoedsack. Apparently the US archives only have a fragment of this film. But it was released in France in 1936, dubbed, and a friend of mine has a 16mm print of it. From this print he made a numerization, so I have this "lost" movie on a DVD-r... Of course it's spoken in French, but it could be re-dubbed in English as the New York City archives have the complete dialogue in print !

    The original ending of 1925 Phantom of the Opera is the holy grail of the phandom. It would have made this film the closest adaptation of Leroux's book.

      Yup, pretty much everything made before 1965 was destroyed, and I think that fire in particular killed two people.

    This is super interesting! I was kind of surprised that The Head Of Janus (Der Januskopf) wasn't included, given how famous some of its cast were (it starred Conrad Veidt, and Bela Lugosi was in a supporting role) *and* the fact that it was directed by FW Murnau, the guy who directed Nosferatu. Plus, it was one of the earlier adaptations of Dr Jekyll and Mr Hyde...
    Can you tell how much I want to be able to watch this movie LOL.....It would have been amazing.....

    • @SirChubbyBunny
      @SirChubbyBunny 5 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      I think more than half of Murnau's work is lost these days, which is a damn tragedy on top of his short lived career after he was killed in a car crash in the 1930s.

    There was also another silent film version of The Phantom of the Opera which pre dates any of the universal ones..it was from I want to say 1919 or 1920 and was from Europe (possibly German). There is little known about it but is believed that there may be a few prints in the hands of private owners and it was closer to the book.

    My theory with the Lantern fellow speaking in the silent film version was that, when the reel of film was sent to cinemas, a vinyl record or cylinder was sent along that had whatever the man was saying on it, and it would be played alongside the film. That, or a script was sent with it and a voice actor or local in the area would read it out, and that these had simply been lost over time as well.
