Wintergartenprogramm

Simple little skits but they're enjoyable for what they are and rather impressive.

The Kangaroo boxing scene aside this was a fun little film containing snippets of a visit to the circus.

The Sklandanowkys didn't have as nice a camera as the Lumières, but they sure were better at picking acts to film with it.

Hard to rank for they are merely interesting for their historicity.

A very early short film with several circus acts. It is what it is; it's not much today and is little more than an historical curiosity. Can't really rate it higher than this in good conscience, but it's worth the 5 minutes if you're interested in super old film history.
