How It Feels to Be Run Over

How It Feels to Be Run Over is a one-minute British silent trick film, made in 1900, and directed by Cecil M. Hepworth.

[1] A coach is coming, and moves out of the frame at one side of the field of view.

Soon after, an approaching car veers off course and moves straight to the viewer (the camera).

As it approaches, the occupants wave frantically, hoping to stave off the impending collision.

At the moment the car fills the entire frame the film cuts to title cards that bear the text "Oh, mother will be pleased".
