THE IMPERIALISTS ARE STlLL ALlVE

Comrades and friends.
:30:38
Today is current events.
:30:40
We see them daily at the movies.
:30:43
There's a false idea
about current events at the movies.

:30:49
They say Lumiere
invented current events.

:30:53
He made documentaries.
:30:55
But there was also Melies,
:30:57
who made fiction.
:31:00
He was a dreamer filming fantasies.
:31:03
I think just the opposite.
:31:05
Prove it.
:31:08
Two days ago
I saw a film by Mr Langlois,

:31:11
the director of the Cinematheque,
about Lumiere.

:31:14
It proves Lumiere was a painter.
:31:18
He filmed the same things
:31:21
painters were painting at that time,
:31:25
men like Charo, Manet or Renoir.
:31:27
What did he film?
:31:29
He filmed train stations.
:31:31
He filmed public gardens,
:31:34
workers going home,
:31:36
men playing cards.
:31:37
He filmed trams.
:31:39
One of the last great
lmpressionists?

:31:42
Exactly, a contemporary of Proust.
:31:45
So Melies did the same thing.
:31:48
No, what was Melies doing
at that time?

:31:51
He filmed a trip to the moon.
:31:54
Melies filmed
:31:58
the King of Yugoslavia's visit
to President Fallieres.
