Talk:The Curse of Quon Gwon

How much remains ? And what there is.
The article never mentions how long the original movie is or whether that is even known.

The way the third sentence of the intro is written "Two reels of an estimated total of seven or eight survived and were restored" (my emphasis on "total") sounds like there were "seven or eight" entire/complete copies of the film that exist/survived; yet, the rest of the sentence  "rendering the film incomplete"  completely negates the thought of a complete copy existing.
 * Apparently, some time period -- like "minutes" -- is missing from the sentence (after the "eight").

Also, no where in the article, especially about the restoration, is it mentioned that all intertitles are missing from the movie.

I think these issues should be addressed and corrected.

Any thoughts by anyone? 2600:8800:785:1300:C23F:D5FF:FEC4:D51D (talk) 07:26, 2 November 2018 (UTC)

"Reels" doesn't mean copies of the film; it means that the original film itself filled up approximately 7 or 8 reels. "It is traditional to discuss the length of theatrical motion pictures in terms of 'reels'." That's why it's said that there's no complete copy. Tfns (talk) 17:11, 11 November 2018 (UTC)
