In London, Professor Challenger announces that prehistoric creatures are alive and flourishing in the Amazon jungle and declares his intention to mount an expedition proving his point. Journalist Edward Malone volunteers to go and convinces his newspaper to fund the journey. Paula White hopes to find her father, a missing explorer. They and others undertake the voyage and witness dinosaurs and humanoids doing battle in a magnificent landscape.(00:00) - Intro (43:13) - Film chat (01:44:37) - Odyssey References:https://movies.fandom.com/wiki/The_Lost_World_(1925) https://letterboxd.com/film/the-lost-world/crew/ https://www.google.com/url?sa=t&source=web&rct=j&opi=89978449&url=https://www.britannica.com/biography/Arthur-Conan-Doyle&ved=2ahUKEwjWiIjm0MuUAxVwaHADHUqUK8oQFnoFCIsBEAE&usg=AOvVaw0fq3GRRcsKpYZFK-CcuBor https://www.poetryfoundation.org/poets/arthur-conan-doyle https://www.arthur-conan-doyle.com/wiki/The_Lost_World https://www.arthur-conan-doyle.com/wiki/The_Lost_World#I._There_are_heroisms_all_round_us https://blogs.loc.gov/now-see-hear/2025/03/the-lost-world-is-100-years-old-and-still-roaring/ https://wordsworth-editions.com/the-lost-world/ https://arthurconandoyle.co.uk/authorhttps://blogs.westlakelibrary.org/2022/05/beyond-sherlock-holmes-the-other-writings-of-arthur-conan-doyle/ https://www.mbebooks.com/blog/a-look-back-at-arthur-conan-doyles-lesser-known-work/ https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=H7sj4zCXMHs https://maxs-blogo-saurus.com/2025/02/08/the-complete-history-of-the-lost-world-1925-100th-anniversary-special-part-1/ https://www.bewaretheblog.com/2020/06/willis-obrien-1925s-lost-world-and.html https://www.bewaretheblog.com/2016/04/marcel-delgado-artist-that-built-king.html https://simanaitissays.com/2025/12/03/the-lost-world-1925-part-1/ https://silentfilm.org/the-lost-world/ https://grokipedia.com/page/Arthur_Edeson https://www.nytimes.com/1925/02/09/archives/the-screen-a-vonderful-farce.html https://homesteadmuseum.blog/2022/05/21/thats-a-wrap-in-the-portrait-gallery-with-a-studio-portrait-of-screenwriter-and-director-harry-o-hoyt-1925/ Tonight's Second Feature is Created, Produced & Hosted by James Hewitt, and Rhys Strang.Movie behind the scenes researched by James HewittPodcast Cover Art by Mihaly Csordas, https://www.instagram.com/sawdustnui/?hl=enPodcast thumbnails by Rhys Strang, https://www.instagram.com/strangrhys?igsh=dWlhN2hkYWpiNzZ3
