🎬 MovieFinder's Take
Florman, a photographer by trade, constructs the shot as a static yet carefully composed picture, relying on his experience with still images. He explores the new medium's potential for documenting formal state ceremonies.
What lingers after viewing is a sense of witnessing both a historical event and the very birth of a national cinema, captured in its pure, silent immediacy. — MovieFinder Editorial
Director: Ernest Florman
Best Watched
Watch as a piece of archival newsreel, in silence, focusing on the period costumes and gestures.
