Knock down and resurrection

An Extraordinary Cab Accident (1903)

Directed by Walter R. Booth this is an early short film. Out for a walk with his lady a gentleman is trampled by a horse and cab.

Simplistic is the best word to describe this film that runs for less than a minute. The plot is very basic even with the “twist” at the end. Even the special effects are not that impressive compared to what else was about at the time.


3/5
