Deleted mine as well.

Thanks guys!
Why didn't I post this earlier. I already did a lot myself, but this makes a lot more sense. Still 554 left to do, but hopefully some will be done by users themselves. Also sent some PMs on iCM.

[allisoncm]

Feel free to reach out if I have any.

[Cippenham]

I completed mine, deleted comments but I think one link didn’t work

[joachimt]

Thanks. Which didn't work?

an+ a.n.y.p.d. on last letters

[Nathan Treadway]

Deleted mine that were in that list.

[maxwelldeux]

Just deleted mine.

[joachimt]

I'm almost through the list of dead links. I've sent some links to Fergy and Lonewolf, which they will take care of. Lots have been deleted or edited by users themselves. Only have 64 left by jvv, but she hasn't responded to my message yet.

Thanks to everyone for helping.

[Ebbywebby]

Wait, jvv is female? I had no idea.

[jvv]

deleted mine - sorry, forgot this thread

for your information, the links to the beta don't work for me (well, I gave up after waiting for 3 minutes for a page to appear)

[joachimt]

I’ve heard that complaint before. Some people seem to be unable to access the beta at all.

Thanks for your help!

The link by jlfitz for this film does not work now

[AdamH]

Only checked a few links but the Vimeo links all appear for me as private and requiring a password. Same for everyone else?

[Ebbywebby]

I think there was a period when a bunch of Hungarian films were viewable on Vimeo, but there was a warning that this would be temporary.

[joachimt]

So I guess I should go through all those comments?

It's only the first 28 comments (the Vimeo ones) and they are all private.

I removed the first two. That third link works fine for me, though, so I'm leaving it.

Yeah, that's weird. It wouldn't work for me last night, but now it does. Though the same clip is on YouTube, so I don't know why turning to that weird Russian site was necessary.

It seems a misleading/wrong link is posted for the following:
https://www.icheckmovies.com/movies/ent ... xposition/

It seems like they are re-enacting the film. The film's in color and there's no way it was filmed in the 1800s.

I'm not so sure. nbatman's other links have been reliable thus far.

Here's the description for the video on YouTube

A compilation of 15 films taken by pioneer filmphotographer Alexandre Promio during the General Art and Industrial Exposition of Stockholm 1897.

Contains these films from the Catalogue Lumiere:
No.541 - Entrée de l’exposition
No.545 - Norrström : débarquement
No.546 - Norrström : panorama
No.544 - Kastellholmen : panorama
No.542 - Arrivée à l’exposition en bateau
No.534 - Arrivée d’un bateau et débarquement à l’exposition
No.535 - Arrivée de la garde au palais royal, I
No.536 - Arrivée de la garde au palais royal, II
No.538 - Arrivée du kronprinz à l’exposition
No.537 - Arrivée du roi à l’exposition
No.539 - Entrée du cortège royal à l’exposition
No.533 - Entrée du château dans le vieux Stockholm
No.540 - Une bataille dans le vieux Stockholm
No.548 - Strandvägen : panorama
No.547 - Saltsjöbaden : départ en chemin de fer, panorama

These are some of the first films ever taken in Sweden and marks the beginning of swedish filmmaking.

- 60fps Converted
- Stabilized
- Speed Corrected
- Colorized (not historically accurate)
- Ambiance sound added

So it's been restored, colorized, and had a soundtrack added, but it might still be the correct film (albeit not in it's original silent, b&w form).

Perhaps someone who reads Swedish could check out the source link and verify? The site's a bit confusing for me to navigate, even with Google Translate.

[joachimt]

It's the correct film. Here's the proof:

IMDb trivia says it's Lumière Catalogue number 539.
https://www.imdb.com/title/tt3187630/tr ... r_ql_trv_1

Searching the Lumière catalogue results in this:
https://catalogue-lumiere.com/entree-du ... xposition/

Watch the Youtube-clip, pause it at the moment of the screenshot and you'll see it matches perfectly. That's not a re-enactment. Too hard to re-enact that precisely. It's the right clip, but colorized and some fake sounds added.

[Ebbywebby]

Man, I detest when silent films have sound effects added later. Grrrrrr. I watched the above but muted the sound.

I've skipped sharing a few broken links, because I understood that someone had a script that found all of them and they were being steadily eliminated...is that still true?

Bobbybrown made such a script and he ran it a few times in the past, but it's not something that's been done regularly. It doesn't catch everything though, only a few of the main video-hosts.
