| Description: | Pages are turned in a book proclaiming a history of 100 years of moving pictures (although the film was only made in 1938!). The pages turn telling the story of how the moving picture has become a "moving mirror'. Claims are made such as: "By the miracle of the cinema you are to-day transported across the limits of time and space." The pioneers of the past are praised and the film has been made as a tribute to them. End. | |
