Les Forgerons (1895)
This film is also known as BLACKSMITH SCENE and it clocks in at just under a minute. In that time we see a blacksmith doing his job and hammering out a piece of steel before placing it into some water. If you're expecting some sort of story then you're obviously not familiar with the movies from this era. There weren't any stories yet and instead filmmakers were basically just setting up their cameras to catch regular jobs and acts. This film here is okay for what it is as there's certainly nothing here that changed film history but at the same time it was entertaining just seeing someone work back in the day. I do wonder what this man would think about someone watching this footage a hundred and twenty-three years after it was shot?
