| Brief Description: | An unusual and moving tribute to early cinema constructed from
color-tinted and toned nitrate films found deteriorating in the attic
of an Amsterdam movie house. Through meticulous restoration, these
prints, dating from the earliest years of the century, are shown in
the rich and subtle colors in which they were originally exhibited,
accompanied by an evocative soundtrack. "The cumulative effect of
Lyrical Nitrate is a revelation" (The New York Post). Dutch
intertitles with English subtitles. |
