It’s 1926, a hundred years ago – an absolutely beautiful documentary film using early colour technology.  Take a trip around Britain on ‘the open road’ from Land’s End to John O’Groats and see families enjoying summer 1926.  Directed by Claude Friese-Greene, the son of William Friese-Greene, one of the early inventors of moving pictures.  Colour was achieved by alternating red and blue-green filters over each frame of the black & white film as it was projected.  Magical and atmospheric.
