We're kicking it WAY old school this week as Tobin Addington drops by to give us a little bit of film history as we discuss The Arrival of a Train at La Ciotat! In what's quite possibly the first vehicle ever captured on film, we talk about the Lumiere Brothers' methodology in capturing this shot, the many iterations this film has seen throughout the years, and whether or not Dominic Toretto and the family could have hijacked this train. We also discuss the lessons that Thomas Edison learned from the Lumieres and we debunk some myths surrounding this film. Joe picks up on something very insightful. Tobin shares some recommendations on other films to watch from this era. We dive down a rabbit hole of the history of movie trailers and nepo babies. We play the Letterboxd game.
