A few famous movies by the Lumière brothers, all made in 1895:

  • La sortie des usines Lumière (Leaving the Lumière Factory). You can see a few workers who are leaving a factory after work. The first documentary.
  • L'entrée d'un train en gare de La Ciotat (Arrival of a Train at La Ciotat Station). A train is arriving in a station. The people who saw that movie were afraid of the train. The first thriller.
  • L'arroseur arrosé (Sprayer sprayed). A gardener wonders why his watering-can does not work. While he's watching it, the water suddenly runs again and the gardener is all wet. Actually it was a joke by a young boy. The first comedy.
