Trivia, insights & behind the scenes
This was shot by Charles Goodwin Norton, a British film pioneer who mostly filmed actualities—real events rather than staged scenes—making this genuine Victorian chaos, not acted.
In 1899, moving pictures were still novelties shown in music halls; audiences paid to watch strangers throw snow, which honestly? Fair.
