This is a meticulously researched investigation into the achievements and mysterious disappearance of Le Prince, who vanished without trace while travelling on the Dijon-Paris express in September 1890.

Mark Kermode 04 Jul 2015

A flickering story that blends intrigue, industrial espionage, and possibly even murder.

Geoffrey Macnab 06 Sep 2016

The doc isn't especially cinematic but you can't help but admire the dogged passion with which Wilkinson has pursued his subject.

Martyn Conterio 29 Jun 2015

The First Film should be a worthy resource for cinema history enthusiasts and students alike.

Paul D 08 Mar 2017

A conventional documentary in style, but with a very good unaccepted argument about the origins of cinema.
