The Countryman and the Cinematograph (1901)
• October 1st, 1901 • 0h 1min
Comedy
Overview
A satire on the way that audiences unaccustomed to the cinema didn't know how to react to the moving images on a screen - in this film, an unsophisticated (and stereotypical) country yokel is alternately baffled and terrified, in the latter case by the apparent approach of a steam train.
