The Story of the Gang

Story of Ned Kelly, an infamous 19th-century Australian outlaw.
It is a little recognized landmark in the history of filmmaking primarily for a single reason: its incomplete status. When initially released, Charles Tait’s biographical film portraying the real life exploits of the notorious Kelly gang was seventy minutes in length, an impressive run time for a silent film at this point in history. The infamous features “A Trip to the Moon” and “The Great Train Robbery” were both considered feature length at only 10-15 minutes each, and having been released only a few years prior to this movie, one can only imagine how this film blew audiences away in 1906. Granted, it was not the first film to be considered “feature length” by our standards today
