'The inmates ran the asylum': Insider's story on the years when Hollywood ran wild

'The inmates ran the asylum': Insider's story on the years when Hollywood ran wild

This is an origin story. In June 1896, the Soviet novelist Maxim Gorky, then a 28-year-old reporter, attended an event organised by the Lumiere brothers in the city of Nizhny Novgorod. Gorky was there to see what he and his fellow Russian citizens had never seen before; moving images, in this case projected onto a bedsheet in a brothel.
