    Film School Drop Outs Challenge 2017 Week 1 - Auteurs - Pioneers of Film - Lumiere Brothers , George Melies or Alice Guy-Blache

    Everything I love about cinema started right there in the 1890s. The Lumière Brothers started a long tradition of realism, capturing life on camera and providing a snapshot of different times, people and places.

    ★★★★

    The Inventor raises so many questions. Is Elizabeth Holmes a psychopath who didnt care about the trail of destruction she left in her wake? Was she an earnest person who wanted to change the world and really fucked up when it all started to crash and burn? Does the Silicon Valley model of business breed this kind of behaviour? Is the fake it till you make it magic illusion crucial for punctuated innovation that can change the world or delusion…
