Bucking Broncho (1894)
*** (out of 4)
Early Edison short shows an act from "Buffalo Bill's Wild West Show" and has a cowboy riding (as the title says) a bucking broncho. The film runs just over twenty-seconds so don't expect anything too ground breaking but it's still a nice little film considering the time it was made. I was really impressed with how good the cinematography was considering the age of the movie and how much stuff like this was being done at the time. Fans of early cinema will certainly want to watch this one. Even better is the danger of the event, which comes off quite well.
