Anyway, What we for sure know is who brought a complete new dimension to this image box.
Because so far the Cinematograph was used as a “Documentary” format. Here the Brother Lumières filming the arrival of a train. (Which was already totally new at that time, 1896)
But it’s a magician, Georges Méliès who invented the first tricks, but also the first Studio, the first production company (Starfilm), the first special effects and much more!
