I Got Rhythm
A worker is tossing bundled hay into a hopper in this 1897 Lumiere view of men at work.
More than that, it is another graceful study in opposing movements: the man lifts the hay with a pitchfork and tosses it into the hopper at the right with a circular motion. The hopper shakes -- presumably to settle the hay. From the left another sheaf of hay is tossed to him. While you think that it's like paying a monthly bill -- why bother, they'll just send you another in four weeks? -- the three types of movement distract the audience from the others. The eye wanders over the screen and keeps the viewer busy.
