If you've never taken a film history class then we can sum it up for you: lots of things happened throughout time.

Not satisfied? Okay, well firstly you're a tough crowd and secondly, someone has done a much better job of it than us. This someone is Scott Ewing who has mastered the art of the montage and in his latest piece of work, he gives us a thrilling history lesson that goes all the way from 1878 to 2014.

You will be impressed...

As Content Director of Shortlist, Marc likes nothing more than to compile endless lists of an evening by candlelight. He started out life as a movie writer for numerous (now defunct) magazines and soon found himself online - editing a gaggle of gadget sites, including TechRadar, Digital Camera World and Tom's Guide UK. At Shortlist you'll find him mostly writing about movies and tech, so no change there then.
