There will never be another era like the Golden Age of Hollywood.  We didn't know how to blow up buildings then so we had no choice but to tell great stories with great characters.-Ben Mankiewicz

The earliest known photograph of a person (persons, actually).  I have spent a lot of time looking at this and never tire of it.  Paris in 1838, sigh, Bizet was born that year!
