Totally worth the watch. It's so fascinating to see the differences, but more so the similarities, between then and now.

Even though that age had its share of war, sorrow, infirmity, and so on, I have to wonder if there wasn't a sense of optimism from all of the rapid progress in science and technology. I doubt any of these people saw a world war coming in just two decades and a shakeup of the world order, the death of empires, and so forth.

One of my hobbies is collecting pocket watches and my favorite, a ladies Elgin in an ornate gold plated case, was manufactured about a decade before these films were made. It is wild to think this watch could have been worn by someone in these films and then surviving so many years and so much change yet still ticking away and keeping time to this day.
