Probably the most exciting film discovery of recent times, the films of Mitchell & Kenyon were commissioned by travelling exhibitors at the dawn of the twentieth century for screening in town halls, at village fêtes or local fairs. Advertised as “local films for local people”, the audience paid to see their neighbours, children, family and themselves on the screen, glimpsed at local football matches, leaving work, marching in civic processions or enjoying the annual works holidays.
The hugely successful BBC TV series The Lost World of Mitchell & Kenyon introduced audiences to these miraculous views of the past. For the first time these is now the opportunity to explore the Collection in greater depth.
The material on this DVD is taken from 28 hours of footage of scenes of everyday life and represents a cross-section of the subjects covered in the Collection. From factory gates to football matches, the leaving of Liverpool to the leaving of work, the workers on holiday and at play, this material provides an unparalleled opportunity to see the world through the eyes of the working communities of the time. The films of Sagar Mitchell and James Kenyon take us on a tour of everyday life of Edwardian Britain.
This DVD features 35 items in five sections: Youth and Education, The Anglo-Boer War, Workers, High Days and Holidays, People and Places, as well as five additional “hidden” items. It also includes a specially commissioned score by Sheffield-based duo In The Nursery and optional voiceover commentary by Dr Vanessa Toulmin of the National Fairground Archive at the University of Sheffield.

最近看了这个和"The Brilliant Biograph"，不得不承认，卢米埃尔兄弟还是远远领先这些后来者，构图水平和趣味性高多了。这部集锦里的一大亮点是，其中一个镜头出现了扛着摄像机的希塞尔·海普华斯，日后《义犬救主》和第一部《爱丽丝漫游仙境》的导演
