The Great Train Robbery
(1903)
Directed by Edwin S.
Porter this film stars Alfred C. Abadie, Brocho Billy Anderson,
Justus D. Barnes and Walter Cameron. A group of outlaws attempt to
rob a train in the old west.
This film is
considered to have a lot of historical value but I am not sure it has
a much entertainment value any more. Some of the acting and stunts
are pretty bad to a modern eye and the story is pretty much just what
it says on the tin. As a curiosity into early film I suppose this is
a landmark but not something I would recommend watching.
2/5
