Remnants of Lost Media: A Girl Detective in 1921

This film advertisement is one of the only remaining records of the 1921 silent film Retribution, filmed in Queensland and considered to be one of the first full-length feature films made in the state. Directed by Armand Lionello and starring Thorene Adair as the suit-wearing, sharp-shooting girl detective, Retribution told the story of a young woman seeking to absolve her sister of the murder of the "Sapphire King of Anakie" and the theft of his sapphires.

There are no known surviving copies of this film, however a record of the film's script was registered for copyright in August 1921, and a copy of this script is held in the National Archives of Australia.

One of my pet peeves are those “official lyric videos” that are completely useless as lyric videos because they make the font two pixels tall in messy cursive and make it spin around the screen constantly

Reigen is a Discworld Witch

Part of Reigen’s bit as a ‘psychic’ is that he finds people with problems that they have attributed to Cursed Spirits, such as, lack of sleep, stiff shoulders, etc. and solves them with conventional means.

Only calling on Mob, or Serizawa when a spirit is actually the problem.

This is similar to how witches work in the Discworld series, only they can actually use magic.

Witches like Granny Weatherwax avoid using magic as much as possible, mostly using headology (psychology), Boffo (basically kayfabe) and their skills, only resorting to magic when absolutely necessary.

Now that I think about it Reigen uses a lot of Boffo in his work too.

the pre-raphaelite art is only there for the vibes of it.
