if you're really interested see chapter 14 in this book (p. 123). unfortunately some pages aren't available. basically peter marzen made films featuring local events and then exhibited them in the same location and people would come to see themselves on screen. mitchell & kenyon employed the same tactic in the uk. books.google.com/books?id=Li1ZDgAAQBAJ&pg=PA128&lpg=PA128&dq=peter+marzen+films&source=bl&ots=esGI8svHqw&sig=ACfU3U2WGKI3aWn5_W9XWXQT_SH_-ikIkA&hl=en&sa=X&ved=2ahUKEwjQ0ruA1b3oAhWRrJ4KHf3qA7wQ6AEwCHoECAoQAQ#v=onepage&q=peter%20marzen%20films&f=false
