Scenes from: Different from the Others / Anders als die Andern (1919)

[@manflutewarrior]

How brave to make this film in 1919. And now here we are in 2020 and some people on our planet earth still can't take a hint, won't listen to reason, refuse to accept the truth... The truth of our hearts and spirits. Our stories, history, and legacy need to be heard and understood not just for our sake but for the sake of our entire species. At least, that's my conviction/commitment/respectfulOpinion

Beautifully said! 💜

@Wool & Canvas goofy ahh comment

[@minimouse0285]

Not brave at all. Berlin before the war was called a heaven for gays

[@cmoran9103]

​@@minimouse0285 only because of the bravery of those who made it heaven!!! Many of whom were killed a decade later. So READ MORE

[@shelbycriswellart]

Bless you for putting this online. I am currently working on a biography of Magnus Hirschfeld, and finding pieces of this film has been a joy! so Amazing!

[@thenotoriousadin]

Thank you for your work! Looking forward to seeing it when it comes out.

[@maxsfax9707]

Please keep working on that book, I have never seen a Magnus Hirschfeld bio in my life online or in person

[@shelbycriswellart]

@@maxsfax9707 It's not 100% a biography about Magnus but features snippets of his life. It's called Queer as all Get Out and is out now!

[@AxeWaffle]

@@shelbycriswellart Please let me know if you have any fragments of that piece of work you're willing to share! I'm a student doing some work on queer pieces and whatnot, and would love to see it.

So amazing? Sexual depravity is amazing? Child sex is amazing? Inceste is amazing? That an was a psycho

[@LocketInThinePocket]

I really want a remake of this movie... So sad that most of it was destroyed...

[@cemsi27]

Remake??? Damn not!!!!*

[@opalemeraldcat]

It inspired the 1961 British film "Victim," which I found online a few years ago. With another famous and brave main actor, Dirk Bogarde.

[@mjverostek1278]

Yeah so sad it wasn't all of them.

[@c2e.7877]

No not a remake, let's create a time machine to get Conrad Veidt in either a remake or atleast to save the footage. I just want the full movie, I don't care about weird cuts etc.

[@michigano4864]

@@mjverostek1278 What are you implying?

[@AxeWaffle]

This is so beautiful, I'm tearing up. I hope there will someday the remnants of the script can be recovered and it will be possible to see this beautiful piece of cinema be recreated. I hope all of the actors and Magnus Hirschfield's legacy will live on.

Love can not be condemned by male with male. Love is love! I wish that the whole film survived. I would love to watch it

[@c2e.7877]

The fact that the movie was mostly destroyed hurts my soul.

[@mjverostek1278]

Yeah i'd feel a lot better if it was completely destroyed.

Thanks for sharing this piece of history!

This comment section is so nice! Just discovered that this movie was a thing. So sad that it was partly destroyed..

[@johnnydtractive]

Wow, thankyou for sharing this!

Beautiful. Cest Magnifique! Love is love 💙

[@kimackerman2183]

After watching The Cabinet of Dr Caligari I just discovered movie, sadly I've read the comments saying that most of it was destroyed ☹️it would've been so nice to watch the complete film.

[@kimc3024]

Are there enough bits and pieces of this out there to put together and remaster it like they did with Caligari? I would be SO interested in seeing it put together with Veidt and crew.

[@LeaXYZ134]

incredible work! will there be other online screenings of it, or a possibility to purchase a copy?

[@CgSuper-ub8em]

I wish they could remake this movie

[@Ailrent]

Is the UCLA restored version available to watch anywhere? I cannot find it and that's... sad. What's the point of restoration if the film will continue to remain unseen, tucked away in a file cabinet somewhere outside of special viewings?

[@doichuyentinhtrai]

Thank you so much for your work! I wonder if there will be another online showing? It is so amazing!

[@jama211]

Not salut d'amour, it's too beautiful... my wife and I used it as our wedding song. So beautiful.

[@candicefrost4561]

Progressive growth and renaissance always seems to be followed with vicious backlash. I like to think there was an elderly person who was only alive long enough to see this film finally represent him/her, and be filled with hope that Magnus’s work on sexuality could lead to a better world, and that the horrid Victorian repression they lived through would soon be over. I like to think they died with that hope before the Nazis brutalized this progress, and that if we keep this history close to us as we try to make a better world for queer people, we will be fulfilling that hope today. It should have happened sooner, but we won’t stop until it happens.

[@AxeWaffle]

This is beautifully put, 100%. Here I am a queer man 100 years later and I'm so thankful for their work and how it's helped us today.

[@SilentMovieSteve]

Thank you for your work! Is this restored version available for purchase? The only version I've seen online is the Kino Video version, which I'm assuming is based off the Munich Film Museum reconstruction.

[@UCLAFTVArchive]

Hi Steve, the UCLA version has not been released on home video. It is indeed based on the earlier Munich Filmmuseum restoration. Luckily, we are offering a free virtual screening this Thursday at 4 p.m. (Pacific Time). Thanks for your interest! www.cinema.ucla.edu/events/2020/12/10/different-from-the-others

[@SilentMovieSteve]

@@UCLAFTVArchive I watched the virtual screening, and both the film and the restoration work were great! Thanks again!

[@Ifrit007]

I know this is a 7 month old comment, but I don’t know if you’re still looking for a home video version still or if you mind DVD, but this is the best release of this film that currently exists. Also Region Free and English Friendly. www.edition-filmmuseum.com/product_info.php/info/p4_Anders-als-die-Andern.html

[@CatHelicopter]

This is so beautiful

[@dmybeloved]

Wow amazing

[@rileygraniczny2797]

Is there access to the film anywhere online that I could view?

[@benyoscarza]

What is the piano music used in this clip ?

[@VTownGregory]

The music is "Salut d'amour" by Sir Edward Elgar. He wrote for his wife. It was a piano solo but this duet with violin is very popular.

[@morellawalker373]

I hope you will schedule another virtual showing of this film! Am I right in thinking that would be the most complete version other than kino's?

[@UCLAFTVArchive]

Yes, the UCLA restoration was assembled from the only footage known to exist. Gaps in the film were filled in by images and intertitles.

[@inakientrerrios6793]

¿Alguien sabe por donde se puede ver? Busco y no lo encuentro

[@kkungkkung6013]

beautiful and divine couple ❤

I love the music in this one. So pretty.

1er comentario en español 😅 la ame

[@MN-pz2op]

Yo también :') es una película demasiado hermosa y progresista para el año en que fue filmada ❤️ y el título representa muy bien lo que las personas LGBT siempre sentimos desde que descubrimos quiénes somos realmente, diferentes al resto pero únicos a la vez.

[@Zack3791o]

Igualmente. Un amor diferente. Pero al final, es amor.
