Salford film

January 17, 2009 · Leave a Comment

On the 15th Jan 09 there was a film about the last 100 years of Salford,it was shown to a full house at the Salford theatre on Liverpool St,
It was a collection of nine short films,
The first was of a charity parade made in 1901 people having fun in fancy dress
moving pictures was some thing new then, the quality of the filming was very good made by pioneering cameramen Mitchell and Kenyon,
another film about the A,R.P
air raid wardens, was a serious job at the time but it was comical to ,watch,
although it was Salford I did not recognise many places
