What's your favorite film from the silent era?
Nosferatu will always have a special place in my heart
all of DW Griffith,FW Murnau,Abel Gance,Fritz Lang,Sergei Eisenstein,Dziga Vertov,Cecil B DeMille moves but if i had to pick one it would be Denis Kaufman( Dzinga Vertov) Man with a Movie Camera
Metropolis, battleship potemkin
Metropolis and Nosferatu are my favorite silent era movies.
Chapin's 'The Kid'.
*_The actual events about the moon landing happened 67 years after the movie was created. Imagine how the movie predicts the beginning of "space age"? Imagine how the actors of the movie saw the real events?_*
*why do you write all your comments in bold*
The F0x *it* _will_ -forever- *be* _a_ -mystery-
wait until they see the far far future when we use magnetic "cannons" to shoot satellites for the upcoming Dyson swarm

*Like this*
One thing from the movie didn't change with the real lunar landings: The welcoming of the voyagers back to Earth.
Damn, this actually brought a tear to my eye at the end. I was not expecting that.
This video is professional level
It’s sad that channels like you don’t get noticed
Thank you man, hopefully we'll get more noticed someday.
First time I ever heard of this film was while visiting the Nasa space center museum In Houston TX. There was a little exhibit talking about the moon throughout history and a little clip of the infamous moon with a human face was shown. I'll never forget it.
You reminded me of one of my favorite movies of all time, 'Hugo'. I remember watching it when I was younger and not really understanding but I remember that I loved it. I rewatched it the other day because of this video and I got a wave of nostalgia. Thank you.
It was the book for me.
you should read the book. it was amazing.
@@marcoar1006 Maybe I will
It’s funny how this video is longer than the movie it is about. Great work, btw... I’m exited to learn more about film history 👌🏼
The ending of the video where you show the evolution of the films is amazing
Keep up the great work, man. I’m excited to see more of this series
Thanks so much, man. Can't wait to make more videos like this one :)
The video of Tonight Tonight by Smashing Pumpkins is also a wonderful tribute to Méliès and this film!
It’s amazing that even though these movies are nearly 120 years old and yet they are still idolised and held in such high regard it’s stuff like this which should be respectably documented and exhibited
I find it gratifying to view a positive commentary on a film made at the outset of cinema, whereas some online sites present instead unfair, pseudointellectual accusations of sundry prejudices, failing to acknowledge the fine art and special effects still impressive to this day. It's truly disappointing that somebody as gifted as Georges Melies would go unappreciated for decades.

Just watched this film for my french class last week! I thought it was really very whimsical and magical.
I will never understand how you only have 61K subs and 500 likes.
Your channel is amazing, and deserves a LOT more viewers.
The editing between Hugo and the actual film is flawless, and the 1812 Overture really adds to everything. It's fantastic work.
I have been searching through TH-cam for videos in film history (a raucous Saturday night, I know) and yours is the first I genuinely enjoy and learned from. Thanks!! Hope to see more :-)
wow I love the tribute to Mélies you did here, and you made me laugh big time on this one 6:48 thanks again !
There are no TH-cam channels like yours. I really congratulate you because of all your amazing videos. This one is one of the best. But it would be interesting to make a video about "The birth of a nation" which is considered by several as the first modern film.
Hugs form Colombia.
Thank you very much, my brother. We will definitely make one on Birth of a Nation (possibly this year). Thanks again for the kind words!
I love these video you're doing, you're channel has inspired me to create my own with similar content, thank you!!
Entertaining and educational
I love the beginning music that plays in the first scene.
This was a great, well-informative and very nicely done video. I watched it as an assignment in my Humanities 1101 course. Thank you for sharing.
I just discovered this channel and you’re amazing! Please start posting again before I get through your amazing back catalogue of videos.
Wow, what a fantastic video. I feel so privileged to be even SUBSCRIBED to this channel!
Thank you very much! We look forward to making more videos like this one :)
@@AMatterofFilm Thank you for your hard work! Please keep at it! Your videos always make my day! :D
Great Masterpiece . Glad it was not lost to history
made me cry
You really deserve more subscribers for your incredible videos
A splendid documentary, outstanding in every respect! Friends and I just this afternoon saw for the first time "Le Voyage Dans la Lune" at the Museum of Modern Art in NYC and of course we were utterly enthralled. Then I found this superbly illuminating exposition only hours later on-line. Can't help wishing this could be played at the Museum too because, in its own way, it's as good as the film itself.
a trip to the moon will all ways be the face of cinema
Underrated channel
This is pretty cool guys! Love the idea, keep on, i will be watching.
Low-key thought Leonardo DiCaprio was narrating this
Another significant inspiration for this film was H.G. Wells First Men In The Moon.
That's why we have copyright laws today, because of pirates like Thomas Edison. Melies should have made a fortune with the royalties alone.
So excited for the next installments!
Coming soon!
This is an amazing resource for my sci-fi classes. Thank you for creating!
What a cool class! You welcome!
Fantastic video to cure my curiosity. Great video man! You're going places.
Oh! Thank you Antonio, glad you enjoy it!
fascinating video, very well done! thanks for the great upload, really good editing and script. You're 100x better than Nerdstalgic because you actually write a thesis and have something interesting to say. I wish your channel were bigger, you're really great.
Love it! Please continue with more History videos
the image of the capsule on the moon is still recognizable and iconic to this day
to me it makes sense to call it the first feature length film and first epic imho.
Excellent Video!
I love this film, is so amazing... i saw it a couple of years ago and was astonished by it... great work:)
Excellent little documentary! Thank you 🙏
This was a great video! I would love to see more history of film videos.
This was a Beautiful, BEAUTIFUL video man
Thank you!
I got latched on to your intriguing channel through your full metal jacket: the duality of man. And I love your content.
In the worlds of bulkowski drinking is like being reborn its pretty awesome you should give it a try i like to drink alot i feel the hangover is refreshing
An awesome video! Always an honor to learn new stuff about Melies 👍
This movie kinda scared me a little, but now when I look at it now, it’s a masterpiece
I love Melies visual style of Art nouveau fantasy, I wish more filmmakers would go for that.
beautifull , i'm so proud that melies is french :)
I absolutely loved this, thank you
Great video. I just got the moon tattoed on my arm, so happy to learn more about it :))
Awesome! Thanks for watching, we invite you to check out more of our content! 💓
Well documented account of the amazing beginnings of the motion picture industry.
My favorite movie
So beautiful! Thanks for watching, :)
Good work.
Considering how long this was before the actual trip to the moon by NASA. It's amazing how similar some of the details were.
Yea. Just like how both the moon landing and this film are fictional.
Just WOW.
I was so excited for this series when I found this video, why did you stop uploading?
THIS WAS AN EXCELLENT VIDEO! THANK YOU FOR YOUR DETAILED WORK! I'M SUSCRIBING!!!!
I’ve always looked at this as a horror film more then sifi it has a lot of horror to it but also works as a sifi as well
This shots came from the movie Hugo!😱
Really nice work. Not sure you need more training on voiceover! But good to hear the channel is developing.
I lived 7 years in Montreuil (city where Méliès had his studios, and where a cinema has his name with a big moon in the hall)… And I’m sad to say that most of the children / teen / adults don’t know anything about this cinematographer and how important Méliès was for the entire cinema industry.
A dude from my last school I graduated once said "a performance is great as it's performers"
Me favorite silent film is “Male and Female” by deMille. Gloria Swanson was beautiful.
In French, the final consonant is generally silent so “Meliés" is pronounced “Melié".
Boii episode 2 please
This was an awesome video, thanks for the facts and insight... I need sleep.
[Solo]
Reminds me of Hugo.
Bravo!#
this has been so informative but how do i reference /quote you for a University essay? I WANNA CREDIT YOU
Looking forward to more "History of Film"...
how would describe the composition of melies shots?
It's The Raid (2011) meets a trip to the moon (1902)
Hey, does anyone know the soundtrack name used on A trip to the Moon?( The one in this video too), I've been trying to find it for quite a while now.
1812 Overture by Tchaikovsky. Enjoy!
tonight tonight
your footage of almost modern recreation, like a movie about Mel, what is that from?
I like that this film was all based around the movie "Hugo".
You mean, Hugo was based on this movie?
@@AMatterofFilm Yes. Silly me.
This is a good video .
Hugo is a Damn good movie
Please....where is the music that’s New Wave from start to finish? I’ve looked everywhere...i enjoy it sooo much with the odd music. Please help?
This is the one we meant on the video. th-cam.com/video/C8ZxoGLmw9U/w-d-xo.html
The first film to predict the future
This is great god
I A.I colourized that film and put in on a A.I Colourization group and Facebook copyright strike it. It is supposed to be in the public domain.
This video is what i was waiting for! As an 9 years old kid i've seen a movie about a a child named Hugo and in this movie, he met the creator of the trip to the moon. I loved that movie. After that... I was searching for the original trip to the moon movie.. I couldn't found it for like... 6 years beacuse i didn't know the name of it. But a few mounths ago i found it on youtube and... Wow... Thank you for all these information.
Glad you enjoyed it! Welcome to the channel :)
inspiring!
🙏❤️!!!!
i'm writing a story that incorporates the same sets. hopefully we can make the movie.
God, I tired up man. That was amazing.
i love hugo :')
meh.
Great video! Here, have a subscribe.
Anyone know what the violin music is called
It's the 1812 Overture by Tchaikovsky. Enjoy!
@@AMatterofFilm thanks
From the earth to the moon (the TV Series) anyone?
Update the three million viewed video was deleted.
Queen used it though .. so wasn’t quite forgotten
What's the movie at 0:40? I remember that scene in a movie
Hugo is the movie that this scene is used.
Hey moon - John maus brought me here 🖤
I LOVE THAT SONG SO MUCH!!!!!!
@@AMatterofFilm Much love from pakistan brother ❤️
Does anyone know the music played in the beginning of the video?
Will you ever get to history no. 2?
Mel e yea. The final s is silent (shhh).
Where's the second part?:(
We'll release some day! Thanks for watching.
The maker of this movie is in hugo
I actually didn't notice any of those themes. The movie is kinda messed up...
Is he a time traveler?
He probably is, or maybe something else. 🤖
