The review
Most of this is lost, so I am not going to fake a viewing. Joseph Perry and the Salvation Army put slides and film together as a lecture on martyrs of the early church. The piety is the product. People argue it was the first feature, and it is not one continuous story film in the later sense.
I won't describe the deaths. I didn't see them. If a fragment turns up, we look at it as a church lecture with pictures. We will not pretend we finished a show that isn't here.
Journal
Keep Soldiers of the Cross in the record.
No house has filed a sentence for this yet.
Live Historic number 33. Yours can differ.
The glance
Industry and Household and Courage and Republic and Temperance and Truth and Stewardship are the thin ones.
Does anyone here do a real job, and does that job matter?
This phone is set for a grown person, just me. Change the ages.
The eight
- 4Industry
Perry's Salvation Army lecture mixed slides and film for a crowd.
- 1Household
No marriage or child is on offer; the subject is the early church.
- 5Piety
The piety is the product: a lecture on martyrs, not a life we can see.
- 4Courage
Martyrdom is the announced subject, and most of the show is lost.
- 3Republic
A church lecture, not a town or a statute you can watch being owed.
- 4Temperance
It sold a lecture rather than the next thrill, and the prints are gone.
- 3Truth
The first-feature claim is argued, and a lost show cannot settle it.
- 2Stewardship
Almost nothing is left to watch; the boast outlived the pictures.
