Fencing (1892)

Even though this was made four years after the first official motion pictures, this thing actually lasts even less in regards to screen time! Clocking in at just two seconds, this here shows two men fencing or at least getting ready two. In the two seconds we see them raise their swords up and then the movie is over. I guess you could call this one of the first cliffhangers as well. obviously one shouldn't expect any sort of plot in these early films. They remain entertaining today because of the fact that they were made so early in the format and you can't help but wonder what people thought of these mere seconds when it was originally released.

The short form refers to creative works characterized by their brevity and concise storytelling. Unlike full-length feature films, short films have a running time of less than 45 minutes, while TV shorts have a running time of less than 22 minutes.
