La colazione del bimbo

This film, along with nine other films, was shown at a Paris, mini-film festival, by pioneering filmmakers, the Lumiere brothers, in December of 1895. The seventh film ever shown to a paying audience, ends up being the first sequel too, when August Lumiere brings his kid back out for lunch time with the wife. They are both the main subjects in an earlier Lumiere film, shown about two minutes before this one, Fishing For Goldfish (1895). Watching this during a mini-festival in 1895 probably didn't register as a sequel. But looking back at it 130 years later, it is a prime, early example of a sequel. The baby must have tested well during all the test screenings. This is what is so cool watching films from the pioneering era of film.
