La Sortie des usines Lumière

I laughed, I cried, I'm pretty sure I saw a pickpocket in that crowd.

There's just something somehow beautiful about shorts like this... these little pieces of time that have been preserved for over a century, and will be preserved, presumably, for as long as there is a humanity

Interesting as a piece of motion-picture history, or as a brief glimpse into late 19th century France. However, with that said, rating these historically significant shorts is difficult. Although not exactly boring, I wouldn't exactly call this actuality riveting. Well, that is of course outside of the dog. Here we see the first instance of the charismatic dog stealing the show from a less than stellar film. Who cares about these people and their droll lives, what's up with that dog?

Impossible to review objectively. It's boring from a modern viewing, of course, but it's the first movie, so it's kind of the great-great-great-great grandfather of Scorsese and Woody Allen and Spielberg and Kurosawa and Kubrick and Tarantino and Hitchcock and James Cameron and Chris Nolan and Sergio Leone and Eastwood and Orson Welles and Michael Mann and the Coen brothers, so I can't really say "IT SUUUCKS!!", can I?

Can't be rated subjectively; in 1895, this would be a stunning masterpiece; after the creation of editing and plot, it's just a boring shot of people walking. Still, it's a historical artifact, and there is some interest in watching people from a time so far removed from the modern day. Good to know dogs always chased after bikes, too.

That is certainly people leaving a factory! Wow, cinema

original one horse version is the best one, but for a fan of horses I recommend the two horse version.

One wonders what all those workers were hired to do, exactly. Marketing, presumably.

I never found out who owned that dog. Oh well the first unsolved movie mystery.

" it was the first film ever to be projected to a paying audience," Oh dear, they payed for this? That's kind of a rip-off. Not the most boring movie I've ever seen, you see people walking. Good choreography!

These, how do you call 'em, motion picture cameras are very interesting!

Important moment in the medium of film-making, but of course not a piece of art by any definition. Still, as a film fan, it's nice to see this bit of history. I find it very neat to think how 115 years ago, the motion picture made it's first step from new experimental technology to the extremely important medium of art it is today. Also, PeaceAnarchy has never gone people-watching before.

An important moment in history, noted as the first ever real motion picture made. The dog that turns up briefly IS the star of the show, though.

I'm extremely neutral about this one

Workers? Leaving a factory? Rip it up.

People watching is a lot more entertaining than you would think, but this film still doesn't maintain interest after the first 2 or so minutes. Still, its importance supercedes most of its boring aspects. Any film buff should watch it once.

This is actually really interesting as a study of human behaviour. Notice how some people turn left and others right, but at certain points when one side peters out everyone follows the lead until someone decides to break new ground. There are so many people that I could watch this all day and keep noticing different little things like this.

About as good as most other box office sensations.

Sinema tarihinin ilk çekimi. bu tarz filmleri notlamak belki doğru değil ama neleri izleyip izlemediğimi kayıtlamak istiyorum. Bu tarz kurgusuz çekimlerin hepsine, 1 vereceğim ki tek bir yerde toplansın takılmayınız.

Exiting the Factory, one of its titles in English, is considered the first movie in the history of cinema shown to a paying public audience. It is worth watching for its historical importance, but it lacks no artistic value. The movie is in the public domain, you can watch it for free: https://youtu.be/I-peG1HA_TE

Star Rating: ★★

Look at all those factory workers, leaving after a days hard work in their everyday clothes, walking with totally normal postures, trying not all to catch as much camera as possible :)... :(. Funny, tragic and very rich document. [insert unsubstantial, crappy comment about film starting in a factory here].

i've seen this too. it's nice to see where film started, but i'm not sure how else i'm supposed to rate this. maybe i shouldn't at all, heh.

Acceptably interesting.

HOT WALKING ACTION.

Those Lumières sure did like to film people doing uninteresting things.

Really heartfelt. People working honestly in order to make a living, cooperating to achieve something.

how can you rate something like this? the first film footage shot? neat, I guess.

One of the most known Lumiere shorts. It's nothing special, but well, who is interested in movies and doesn't know anything about this?

Also impossible to rate

Because we owe so much to these films it is so hard to rank them correctly.

Genesis...

Any score given isn't fair.

No big deal, but very important.

Pretty important since it was the first film ever produced in the world. Besides that, at 40 seconds long, it's too short and unbearably slow. Go see it anyhow.

More important than good. But still interesting as hell

Riveting.

Well, come on. I mean, it's pretty fucking important, even if it's boring as hell.

Ultimate kudos because this is the first theatre film ever despite lack of substance. But this film is still better than half the crap Hollywood puts out today, which really says alot about the current state of fimmaking.
