A long title for a short film

 

Paris, cortege du boeuf gras (char du prince du carnaval) (1897)


Directed by Auguste & Louis Lumiere this is an early short film. We see a float go past in a procession.


The subject of the film is a truly horrifying float which would no doubt make the basis of a good horror movie. Fascinating to see what people made in the past. The last part of the film is a bit of a let down in comparison to the first part.


3/5
