Complete Record: It is an undeniable classic of animation, very British in its humour and very tied in with its period. With an irrepressibly optimistic narrator and great wit it takes us from the cavemen daubing on the rock, the pinhole camera, through the early silent movie era, and eventually to the rise of television. This animated film discusses the history of cinema technologies and culture.
