A place in time

 

Place du Pont (1897)

Directed by Louis Lumiere this is an early short film. We see a street scene from Lyon as a tram comes towards the camera.

There is not a huge amount going on in this short film, it captures a sedate moment of every day life without having any clear subject. Not likely to wow audiences either now or in the past. Does not do much as a piece of entertainment.
