Sure, the Edison group is responsible for capturing the first motion pictures: Dickson recorded Ott's Sneeze, the Dickson Greeting, and Monkeyshines No.1.
These were certainly impressive, but were not the narrative style films we are used to today. They basically just recorded motion.
Who was responsible for creating the first narrative style films, in the US and in Europe?
Thanks for your input and I understand it`s a little bit like asking, "what came first, the chicken or the egg."
