Children were riveted, entertained and informed. They loved the set of Edison's shop. "I liked how it told how the inventions were made." "I didn't know that the first movies didn't have sound."
Inspiring. Excellent balance between history, science and imagination. Time-period clips enhanced visual and cognitive understanding. Promotes a healthy respect for intelligence and inquiry. It's a great way to introduce inventors and science.
Thomas Edison's research in moving images is disrupted by a scruffy lad, Jack. Edison recognizes something of himself in the boy and takes him in. Together Edison and Jack pursue the dream of the motion picture.
