Place des Cordeliers à Lyon (1895)
This actuality film from the Lumiere Brothers basically has a camera set up on a street that is covered with snow. For less than a minute we see the various activities on the street including a passing carriage as well as several people walking around. Obviously a lot of people won't see the appeal of these types of actuality films but if you're a fan then you'll know what I'm talking about. Usually these films just capture a moment in time and that's exactly what we've got here. There's nothing special or ground-breaking but we just see what was going on for this brief moment in time.
