"Dr.Carr: 500 years from now, people will look back and they'll say: "This was the beginning. This was the first 100 years. These were the origins. Why didn't they take better care of them?" And the "they" they're talking about is us.
Blaetz: Film is the art form of the 20th century, and we have let it go. The studios stored the films badly and they deteriorated, they burned. They didn't think of them as an art form.
Rosen: Half of the movies made before 1950 no longer exist in any form whatsoever. Maybe 80% or so of the silent era is gone.
Leggett: So much of film history has already been lost, but there's still a very great deal which can be saved if we're willing to do it." These Amazing Shadows (2011)
