The Lumiére Brothers from France are often credited as the ones who made the first ever motion picture, and this is often referred to as the first ever motion picture seen by cinema audiences. It is a less than one minute single shot of the hundreds of men and women, mostly women, leaving the Lumiére filmmaking factory after a day's work. It is simply seen these days as the revolution of filmmaking, but it is a question, what would the world be like without films? This film gave way for the many other revolutions that followed, obviously longer films came, and they gave us sound, colour, stars, special effects, 3D and much more besides. For the fact that this is the first ever film to have existed in history, it is a most watchable black and white silent documentary film. Very good!
