Gift of Fire: Nineteen (Obscure) Frames that Changed the World
Nineteen film frames remain of artist and inventor Louis Le Prince's 1888 movie of Leeds Bridge, here seen in stereo. A six-foot-four man among a five-foot-five population, he "vanished" on the way to the patent office, quite possibly a feat of wizardry, or skullduggery, by The Wizard of Menlo Park. Now Edison is also gone and there's only the film fragment to investigate.
