All those old films you remember the past. There was a time of romanticism and profound messages.

Yes – I got a copy of the film from Michael, as I was looking for someone to collaborate on a video essay on this film and Farocki had come to mind. Little did I realize that he had already made such a work!

Interesting. Thanks so much.
Do you know Harun Farocki made a German TV video essay about this film?
“Über “Song of Ceylon” von Basil Wright” (1975, for the series Telekritik)
See http://www.kunst-der-vermittlung.de/dossiers/bi...
and Farocki's own site http://farocki-film.de/

I was impressed by the quality of the movie even thought it was filmed about 100 years ago!
