I watched 1 episode of Irma Vep and now I wanna see this film. I've found where to see the entire film series, now trying to carve out 7 hours to give my unadulterated attention to it. That's complicated these days. Obviously I'll have to break the time up but I don't wanna break it up too much. What's the best way to watch this?

Coincidentally I finished the serial last week. The Blu-ray set was sitting on my shelf unopened for years and like you, I wanted to watch it before starting the HBO series. (I have already seen the 1996 movie though.) I watched an episode per night to somewhat replicate the serial feel of when it originally screened in 1915-1916. The story has twists here and there and some humor. It’s worth seeing I think.

Never heard of it...
How does it compare to Nosferatu?

It doesn’t compare in that it has nothing to do with vampires.

I see it's on yt. Interesting, but 7 hours would really be too much for me.
Although I'm triggered hehe

That's nice to know. I think I'll watch in 3 parts. The show is already 3 episodes in and I'd like to understand what they’re talking about concerning the movie. I did find the full series movie on YT. I understand it's kind of an answer to the US, Perils of Pauline, or rather it's polar opposite. I'm familiar with that.

Seem to be a few posted on YT. What do you mean triggered, what about that movie triggers you?
