Filmography
The pictures, as the marquee remembers them.
Fiction, clearly labeled. Everything on this page is invented lore for the original fictional character Benz — stories, quotes, places, and people. None of it is real-world fact, and none of it is presented as such.
In-universe, Benz's legend is tangled up with the cinema — some say he inspired the films, others say he starred in them. The archive lists:
| Picture | Year (in-universe) | Role |
|---|---|---|
| The Silent Print | 1928 | Himself (uncredited — he stole it back, after all) |
| Marquee Lights | 1934 | "The Stranger" — the role the city swears was written for him |
| The Meridian Reel | 1941 | The gentleman thief (the papers called it a documentary) |
| Club Deco Nights | 1947 | The card player who never loses on purpose |
| Tunnel Run | 1952 | The driver — one take, no stunt double needed |
All pictures are fictional within the fiction — part of the character's lore, not real films.
