Fascinating portrait
This great little home movie, filmed around the 1920's, is a glimpse of three or four children playing around and exploring. It seems that they're fascinated by trains as they keep coming back to them to explore. A great shot shows them on a bridge directly above a steam train, and the steam blowing right on top of them. A priceless shot. Later on it seems we meet the rest of the 'family' although we don't know who they are. There are shots of golfing, picniking, and pushing each other out of the way. The 'producer' puts some nice effects shots and great fade in shots as well. Maybe that's why this is part of the film vlub advertised at the beginning of the show.
