Fire!

1901·Action·5m
7.0
Firefighters ring for help, and here comes the ladder cart; they hitch a horse to it. A second horse-drawn truck joins the first, and they head down the street to a house fire. Inside a man sleeps, he awakes amidst flames and throws himself back on the bed. In comes a firefighter, hosing down the blaze. He carries out the victim, down a ladder to safety. Other firefighters enter the house to save belongings, and out comes one with a baby. The saved man rejoices, but it's not over yet.

Fire!
The evolution of cinema 26/524year 1901: 2/4 

This surprisingly enough looked extremely realistic– even to the extent I genuinely thought I was watching a documentary at certain points. Besides the obvious great cinematography and choreography– this film had a great narrative (for Its time) and was just super fun to watch. Super simple but epic. If I were to watch this as a little kid I would’ve probably wanted to become a fireman myself right after.

God for a second I thought they threw a child out the window.

It seems like this was copied by the film “Life of an American Firefighter.”

First example of an american remake that gets more credit?
