What happens
The Man from M.A.R.S. is a 1922 silent U.S. science fiction film. It is notable for using the 3-D process called Teleview, similar to today's alternating frame 3-D systems. Shown in 3-D only at the Selwyn Theater in New York City, it was previewed as Mars Calling at a trade and press screening on October 13, 1922, premiered as M.A.R.S. on December 27, 1922, and ran through January 20, 1923. A 2-D version was distributed as Radio-Mania in 1923–1924. The film was directed by Roy William Neil and photographed by George J. Folsey. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
