Booger picking....an entertainment venue that never caught on.........shame.

[BSHFTW]

He still holds the record for the quietest sneeze in cinema history.

[cjimmy99]

He doesn't realize that he started the era. The era, OF THE COUCH POTATO!

[MrBiketool]

[crazynintendoguy]

[saga3k]

actually he was inhaling tobacco, like they did in those days..... so this could easily be the first record of a modern junkie.......

Boring plot, and I found the acting very unconvincing. Dialogue was virtually nonexistent. A poor entry in the Sneeze genre of cinema.

[sergiothecomedian]

[DShadow911]

someone missed the humor.

The film was produced by the Edison Manufacturing Company, which had begun making films in 1890 under the direction of Dickson, one of the earliest film pioneers. It was filmed within the Black Maria studio at West Orange, New Jersey, in the USA, which was America's first movie studio. It was filmed between January 2, 1894 and January 7, 1894[2] and was displayed, at the time, through the means of a Kinetoscope.

Wow, thanks for posting this. This film is absolutely iconic. Do you know if anyone posted the running horse sequence (not actually a film, I know)?
