Out the carriage, into the chair

 

Pope Leo XIII Leaving Carriage and Being Ushered Into Garden, No. 104 (1898)


Directed by William K. L. Dickson this is an early short film. The pope gets out of a carriage and sits on a chair.


A rather long title for a simple film. Could have done with moving the camera back a bit to get more in shot but mostly fine. No doubt important as a historical record if not that entertaining.


3/5
