Reminded me of this article I read the other day: https://www.usatoday.com/story/life/movies/2013/12/04/silent-films-lost/3866383/ https://www.usatoday.com/story/life/movies/2013/12/04/silent... "The Library of Congress conducted the first comprehensive survey of silent films over the past two years and found 70% are believed to be lost. Of the nearly 11,000 silent feature films made in America between 1912 and 1930, the survey found only 14% still exist in their original format. About 11% of the films that survive only exist as foreign versions or on lower-quality formats." It's too sad that we as a species are allowing our culture and history to be lost ... for some temporal profit of a minority of people.
