Censored scenes from the early days of cinema: “This short was made for the 2007 72-Hour Film Festival in Frederick, Maryland. All of the clips used in this film came from a reel of 35mm nitrate found in an old theater somewhere in Pennsylvania. The projectionist clipped these scenes to meet local moral standards of the time… The music used is a public domain midi file from archive.org, titled musicbox.”

“The game of billiards has destroyed my naturally sweet disposition.”
- Mark Twain, speech, April 24, 1906
