About as modest as you.
I supplied a very minor newspaper cite to help him. He really did a great job.
Since I had email with him about the article, that’s why I remembered it.
Well, that seems to be fairly unrealistic.
Whenever I remember seeing such a scene, it shows a full log, and the saw blade is set to cut right through the middle of it. But in real sawmills, they start from the outer edge, and cut the log into thin planks. They do not start from the middle and slice the log in half.
The series Perils of Pauline is the most famous girl on a train track image. The first was done in 1914. Then The Exploits of Elaine came out.
1933 Perils of Pauline was remade. It was remade twice more after that.
There’s some obvious sexual overtones here. Helpless woman, bound, carried, put in danger. A male fantasy in overdrive. There’s even a phallic aspect to that long, long train that will violate her flesh.
I wonder what the female audience thought of this back in 1914?
