Reseña del libro "Last Rites for Lost Films (en Inglés)"

It took us 300,000 years to make it to the movies. Will it take us just a couple hundred years to lose them?From the author of Book of the Banned comes Last Rites for Lost Films, a cosmic celebration of cinema and a caustic cautionary tale.Whether it's the combustible celluloid of the first nitrate prints that were melted down for weapons of war, or the silent fire secretly wiping away decades of digitised memories, film seems to love getting lost. And we seem to love killing it.Featuring interviews with Oscar nominees, international preservationists and those who have been literally erased from cinema history, Last Rites for Lost Films describes the doomed productions, deleted files and directors' cuts you were never meant to see, and the ones you never will. This is for anyone who's ever lusted after the prospect of witnessing Jerry Lewis' The Day the Clown Cried or Marvel's first - and forsaken - Fantastic Four, as well as everything else you heard was burned, shelved or sued into oblivion. Pay your respects as we travel from the missing first movies to cinema's likely last gasp, and find out if there's still a glimmer of hope for film - and humans - yet.
