“The General is not beloved because of its politics, message, or heaven forefend its modernism, the most dubious of its merits. It's beloved because ninety years after its release, it stands as a model of creativity, narrative efficiency and spectacle. It's beloved because of the sophistication of its filmmaking... It's beloved because in our CGI world the staging of its stunts is even more breathtaking. It's beloved because its extraordinary discipline makes it may be the greatest game of 'Cause and Effect' ever filmed. And yes, it's beloved because it is funny." ~ Bryce Wilson
