A frame from the film

... that a 1922 Brazilian film (pictured) was presumed lost for over 90 years until a mislabeled 1925 American copy was rediscovered at the Czech Film Archive in 2023?

Source: Malleret, Constance (7 October 2023). "Lost 'holy grail' film of life in Brazil's Amazon 100 years ago resurfaces". The Guardian. "but by 1931 all traces of it had vanished." "However, a negative copy of an older, now disintegrated nitrate print of the film survived at the Národní filmový archiv, in Prague, where it had been miscatalogued as a US production from around 1925."

Reviewed:
Comment: I'm not sure if the pictured frame is necessary or passes WP:DYKIMG on relevancy. The hook could be shortened or rewritten, if possible.

@Cathodography: This article (created on 29 January) is new enough, long-enough, and well-sourced. Image is public domain. Hook is interesting, although I'm not sure if the part about a "1925 American copy" checks out; the quote you've given just tells us that it was mislabelled "as a US production from around 1925", not that it's a 1925 American copy. How about:

ALT1: ... that a 1922 Brazilian film (pictured) was presumed lost for over 90 years until a mislabeled copy was rediscovered at the Czech Film Archive in 2023?

Do let me know if I've misunderstood. In any case, the article is good to go with ALT1. Best, Tenpop421 (talk)

@Tenpop421: Thanks for the review! I see your point and have reworded the hook for clarity:

ALT0A: ... that a 1922 Brazilian film (pictured) was presumed lost for over 90 years until a miscatalogued copy, mistakenly listed as a 1925 American film, was rediscovered at the Czech Film Archive in 2023?

I'm aiming to highlight that the copy was thought to be an American film, which makes its rediscovery more surprising. However, if you think ALT1 is clearer, I'm happy to go with it. Cattos ^💭 23:37, 7 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]
