Some interesting things to know:

On October 24, 1888 (ten days after filming), Mrs. Sarah Whitley (Louis's mother-in-law) died at the age of 72.

On September 16, 1890, Louis Aimé Augustin Le Prince mysteriously vanished just before unveiling his new technology to the public. Neither his body or luggage was found.

On September 20, 1890, Thomas Edison in own handwriting wrote the following small entry: "Eric called me today from Dijon. It has been done. Prince is no more. This is good news but I flinched when he told me. Murder is not my thing. I'm an inventor and my inventions for moving images can now move forward.”

In 1902, two years after Adolphe Le Prince (Louis's son) had testified about his father's inventions in court against Thomas Edison. he was found shot dead on Fire Island, New York.

Best movie ever!

Well you have to start somewhere! Plus this movie was short, and to the point! Perfect length for my attention span! :wink:

This is the second known film document, filmed in the garden of Le Prince House at Oakwood Grange in Roundhay, Leeds (UK).

Since I was born and raised in Leeds, I’m proud of this film history piece.

A very short but exiting clip!

A brief but happy scene.

It looks like quite a nice garden.
