What Is The Film Parade About?

The premise of The Film Parade without spoilers.

Pioneer filmmaker J. Stuart Blackton envisioned a cinema‑history film in 1915. He released the 52‑minute The Film Parade in 1933, premiering in New York to a positive Variety review. He kept revising it through the 1930s, and its footage later circulated as stock and was re‑edited into various shortened, retitled versions by other filmmakers and distributors.
