I rented this to get a glimpse into the early beginning of film. It was more for the educational aspect than the entertainment aspect. Most people will probably find it diffucult to sit through a lot of the short films, I admit I didn't even come close to watching the full 334 minutes, however some are surprisingly entertaining. If you want a history lesson in what film was like 100 years ago then add this to your que.
