The first movies post

After looking at some of the links from some of the first movies made I saw a lot of things that can be linked to one another. Mainly they were all black and white of course since they had not yet come out with the technology yet to put a full color film together. After looking at the "kiss" scene I guess that would cause some controversy back in the day considering it was one of the first few movie to come out, but to me I didnt see much harm to that. Obviously I'm going to think different because movies in the present time have love scenes in them all the time. But honestly I didnt even see much of a kiss. The arrival of train Lumiere Brothers seemed like a "first movie" type. It was kind of pale. It looked like they were having a hard time with the movment of the train and looked like that picture was fading away and started to see rips in the picture. Seemed like the first movie type to me with the inability to bring the full motion picture to a smooth play. The Gardner was a funny type. I guess everybody had a sense of humor back in the day bringing laughs to this short film. This was my favorite of the links posted. I could probably watch this one for hours and still get a kick out of it. What happened in a tunnel was hard to watch because there was no sound to it not even any backround music. Not too sure what they were trying to get at with this whole scene.
