The part with the dog was pretty riveting.

@RulerOFmany That part is good, no doubt. But the part with the dog and the bicycle...and the other bike, and the horses at the end; heady stuff.

If this ever comes into the nearest cinema, I won't hesitate to spend my 16 dollars on a 46 second movie. *Cries*

The plot is too complex.

The woman in the hat has a nice rack.

@MrQueenie D'you wanna go back to 1895 and try your hand at filming something? Do you know how amazing this would have looked to a 19th Century audience? No? Okay.
