A Curious Application of Cinema for the Wounded
EDITORS COMMENTS
. This print captures a unique and innovative use of cinema during World War I. In American hospitals across France, where wounded soldiers were confined to their beds, a brilliant solution was found to entertain them - portable devices that projected films onto the ceilings of their wards. In this vivid illustration by Achille Beltrame, we see a scene unfolding in an invalid ward. A group of nurses and doctors gather around a makeshift movie theater set up with a projector. The injured soldiers lie on their beds, eagerly watching as the ceiling comes alive with vibrant colors and moving images. The power of cinematography is evident as these wounded heroes find solace and distraction from their pain through the magic of film. The red hues add intensity to the atmosphere, symbolizing both the bloodshed endured by these brave individuals and the resilience they possess. This image not only showcases how cinema can be used for therapeutic purposes but also highlights the ingenuity and compassion shown towards those who sacrificed so much for their countries. It serves as a reminder that even in times of war, humanity finds ways to bring joy and entertainment amidst adversity. Beltrame's illustration immortalizes this curious application of cinema during wartime, capturing both its historical significance and its impact on those who experienced it firsthand.
