vukelic-stjepan As I wrote in title, this is not first, nor it is second movie ever recorded. First movie ever was 'Man walking around the corner', second is 'Roundhay garden scene'. This is third film by Louise le Prince, and third film overall.But we can say that is first film in which we can see animal !For me, this movie is not interesting like a 'Roundhay garden scene', because it is too simple, and have no piece of mystery like a mentioned film. Lenght of this movie is like every other Le Prince movie, and don't take much time to watch it, just about 2-3 seconds.

des-47 Seven years before the Lumières' historic first cinématographe show in Paris, the earliest known moving images were shot by another Frenchman in, of all places, West Yorkshire. Leeds Bridge is the most substantial and arguably the most appealing of the surviving fragments of Louis Le Prince's work as the location is still recognisable. It's also the first ever high angle shot, from an upper window of a shop on the south side of the bridge, which crosses the river Aire on the southern edge of the city centre — a plaque now marks the spot.This glimpse of Leodians of 125 years ago making their everyday journeys on a route that's still notably as busy and bustling today is surely worth two seconds of anyone's time. Its maker disappeared mysteriously without trace on a train from Bourges to Dijon two years later.

José Luis Rivera Mendoza (jluis1984) In 1888 the city of Leeds, in England, became part of history of cinema as the place where the first movies were made. It was the place where a French inventor named Louis Aimé Augustin Le Prince successfully tested his invention for the first time and created the first moving images in history. Of course, history often credits either Thomas Alva Edison or the Lumière brothers as the inventors of cinema, and not without a reason, as they were the first who made public exhibitions of movies; however, it was Louis Le Prince who shot the first movies a couple of years before Edison and the Lumières. Sadly, Le Prince would die under mysterious circumstances shortly after this monumental achievement (in 1890), and so, being unable to offer public demonstrations, his name was soon forgotten when film was presented by other inventors. Despite this tragic turn of events, it's never late to give the proper credit to Louis Le Prince as the father of cinema.In the first movie ever, "Roundhay Garden Scene", Le Prince captured his wife's family on a day at the garden, as they walked and moved in order to test his camera. For his second experiment, Le Prince went to Leeds Bridge, and shot a 2 seconds of the traffic crossing the bridge. The carriages pulled by horses are captured by Le Prince's camera in what could be considered as the very first documentary in history, as it shows another typical day at the Leeds bridge. Obviously, Le Prince's intention was to capture real moving objects to prove that his invention was not fake, so what better way to do it than filming the traffic? Despite its extremely short runtime, this movie is quite interesting as it's a small glimpse to life in the late Victorian era, almost like a time machine to a past that now, more than 100 years later feels very distant.Watching this movie (as well as "Roundhay Garden Scene") today is a strangely mystifying experience, as while in its short runtime barely nothing happens, the fact that before this movie there wasn't anything, that this was the very first time a movie was made, gives the film an almost supernatural atmosphere. The experiment was successful and cinema was born. It's a tragedy that Le Prince didn't live to see how his invention would grow, and never witnessed his invention becoming an art form and a new way of entertainment. While he never saw the magic of Georges Méliès's movies, or the narrative methods of Edwin S. Porter and D.W. Griffith, Le Prince showed the bridge. Edison, Lumière, and the rest of the pioneers would follow him and change history for ever. 10/10

VeeryGirl This film is the second film ever. The Roundhay Garden Scene is the first film ever made but this is, well, the second film ever made. I like this better than the Roundhay Garden Scene. The Roundhay Garden scene was kind of, what you call, creepy. This film is not-so-much.This two second film has no plot. There is traffic crossing a bridge that is apparently called Leeds. There is people walking on side-walks. There are a couple of carriages. One second is left. There are people riding horses. The people are still walking. The people are still riding. The people are still sitting in carriages. In two seconds the film is over.This is the second film, and it shows, but this is a great film that never be forgotten. Well, maybe it will.10/10
