Abel Gance (October 25, 1889—November 10, 1981) made Napoleon (1927), the epic which Kevin Brownlow has described as “the most innovative film ever—even more innovative than Citizen Kane. Practically every sequence has something in it that you’ve never seen before.” This is from the climactic “triptych” scene, where the screen expands to triple width.
