La sortie des usines Lumière Workers Leaving the FactoryLouis Lumière 1895 France A swarm of employees leave the Lumière Factory.
Famous short Lumière brothers film; it has to have been an influence on Eisenstein - it is echoed in Battleship Potemkin in particular, with a mass crowd moving towards and beyond the camera. Today, a keener eye might see a visual parallel between this very short, one-take shot and the very long, one-take opening of Tarr's Sátántangó, in which cows leave a farmyard.
