According to publicity from the American Mutoscope and Biograph Company, “a specially devised electric apparatus” took single exposures every four minutes, within brief normal-speed views at the film’s start and close. The full title seems inexplicable—we see only demolition—until one reads Biograph’s recommendation to exhibitors that the film also be run backward: “When this view is shown in the reverse, the effect is very extraordinary.” —Scott Simmon filmpreservation.org/preserved-films/screening-room/t1-demolishing-and-building-up-the-star-theatre-1901

August 4, 2012 at 2:18pm · Driving into Weed last night we got inspired. A song arrived that seemed perfect for our set today at the 4&20 Festival. So we wrote it. It's called "A Friend in Weed is a Friend Indeed". We'll play it this evening. We'll start working on rembering the lyrics after breakfast.Bibelhauser Brothers Band ft.
