Indeed, Monsieur Melies believed so himself.
-
But we began a search.
-
We looked through vaults, through private collections,
-
barns and catacombs.
-
Our work was rewarded with old negatives,
-
boxes of prints, and trunks full of decaying film,
-
which we were able to save.
-
We now have over 80 films by Georges Melies.
-
And tonight, their creator,
-
and the newest member of the Film Academy faculty,
-
is here to share them with you.

Bravo!
