Napoleon 1927


Although there isn't much out there on YouTube that shows how groundbreaking this film is, I can tell you from what I saw, this is definitely legendary. From what seems to be underwater scenes to splitting the screen into 3 panels at the climax of the film, this movie drove the industry forward. This film broke the barrier of glorious battle movies, and showed the hardship and emotional truth of what war really was. It is unfortunate that there isn't much out there. I wish I could see the whole thing rather than bits and pieces.
