1911 E7 - The Shorts Continue

The introduction to this 1911 season made a big point (or did it?) that the features have begun, and although the majority of the five most selected films from guests and listeners indeed operate in that mode, the vast majority of selections in general still conform to the time’s global film industry norm of one or two reelers. They reflect, or foreshadow, how quickly the cinematic form was evolving throughout the early and middle years of the 1910s decade.Visit the5bestfilmsofeveryyearever.com/list to see the most selected films and the list of every one submitted!Films mentioned:The Strange Bird (1911) - Urban GadAnimated Putty (1911) - Walter R.
