The Countryman and the Cinematograph

The Countryman and the Cinematograph

5.4 | 1901-10-01 | Comedy

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.
