2014 · 3 min · Documentary

We see the film title card on screen and sound is coming from the cinema, but the screen is black. The filmmaker hands a cellphone with video to two sitting in front of the crowd. The image of the film plays on the phone for those who can see it in the crowd as the audio comes through the cinema speakers.

The Arrival of a Train at La Ciotat

MovieHistoryDocumentary

A group of people are standing along the platform of a railway station in La Ciotat, waiting for a train. One is seen coming, at some distance, and eventually stops at the platform. Doors of the railway-cars open and attendants help passengers off and on. Popular legend has it that, when this film was shown, the first-night audience fled the café in terror, fearing being run over by the "approaching" train. This legend has since been identified as promotional embellishment, though there is evidence to suggest that people were astounded at the capabilities of the Lumières' cinématographe.
