Old Films of Egypt

And now for something completely different.

Thanks to a link at Egyptian Chronicles, a video documentary with a lot of footage of Egyptian newsreels and film from the earliest days of cinema onward. It's in 13 parts at YouTube and I haven't viewed some of the later ones myself, but you'll see links to the later parts across the bottom of the screen. In Arabic.
