The Six Minute One-Reelers, 25 October 2003
Author: Single-Black-Male from London, England

D.W. Griffith took inspiration from Edgar Allan Poe (who created the vocabulary for writing short tales) to write this six minute one-reeler. The 108 short films that Griffith made in this year were more like Poe's tales rather than Maupassant's short stories. He was churning them out 2 a week.
