A TRIP TO BERKELEY, CAL. AM&B, (1906)
IN THE BEGINNING OF THE FILM, A STREETCAR PASSES
IN FRONT OF THE CAMERA POSITION. THE CAMERA STARTS
TO MOVE, INDICATING THAT IT WAS ON A STREETCAR
SINCE IT IS IN THE SAME POSITION AS THE CAR IN THE
FIRST SCENE. ALL THE FILM WAS PHOTOGRAPHED FROM
THE STREETCAR. THE SCENES WERE TAKEN IN THE
METROPOLITAN AREA, AND THERE ARE FOUR TURNS ON THE
TRACK. SEVERAL OLD HOUSES CAN BE SEEN AS WELL AS
PEOPLE AND CARTS ON THE STREET. A MAN SAUNTERS ON
THE TRACK AHEAD OF THE STREETCAR. AS THE SCENE
PROGRESSES, IT IS OBVIOUS THAT THE CAMERA HAS
STOPPED MOVING. THE CONDUCTOR AND THE MOTORMAN
GRAPPLE WITH THE SAUNTERER AND FINALLY PERSUADE
HIM TO LEAVE THE TRACKS AFTER A WOMAN SPECTATOR
HITS THEM OVER THE HEAD WITH HER UMBRELLA. FURTHER
DOWN THE STREET, AN AUTOMOBILE IS TRYING TO GO UP
THE HILL.IT IS BEING PASSED BY OVERLOADED HORSE
DRAWN VEHICLES. THE STREETCAR THEN PROCEEDS,
MAKING ONE MORE TURN BEFORE THE PICTURE ENDS.

PANORAMA OF FLATIRON BUILDING, NYC, AM&B (1903)

STREET LEVEL TO THE ROOF. THE PICTURE'S MAIN
INTEREST IS THE LACK OF OTHER BUILDINGS AROUND THE
FLATIRON BUILDING.
