He invented all sorts of cinematic effects and even used puppets. Amazingly, over the years and through two World Wars he went from being a leader in his field to an almost forgotten hasbeen. I wonder if a puppeteer has ever met with a similar fate? One day, a sought-after entertainer, the next day, old hat.
