Four times a remake

After Lumiere – L'arroseur arrose (1974)

Directed by Malcolm Le Grice this is a British experimental film. We see L'Arroseur Arrose (1895) remade and shown in four different ways.

Taking one of the earliest Lumiere films this short seeks to highlight the effect of cinema and filming something. While this is somewhat interesting I did not find this film especially revolutionary or entertaining. In the end the point the film is making is rather simplistic and does drag things out.
