Talk:William Friese-Greene

The Movie Box
TCM, Turner Classics Movies, (cable TV) just showed the movie—well done. FYI, Charles Edwin Shipp (talk) 04:58, 25 January 2014 (UTC)

Celluloïd film
was invented by Hannibal Goodwin in 1887. It is most unlikely that Green alias Friese-Greene used Celluloid film before 1890. --Filmtechniker (talk) 07:29, 13 September 2015 (UTC)


 * Eastman Kodak began selling unperforated celluloid roll film in 1889. 66.249.175.140 (talk) 16:42, 24 June 2016 (UTC)

Children
The infobox states that Friese-Greene had seven children, but the text of the article only mentions "four sons" from his second marriage to Edith. The film "The Magic Box" portrays him as having at least one daughter from his first marriage to Helena and five sons with Edith. What is the source of the seven number? --Blurryman (talk) 19:33, 28 May 2021 (UTC)


 * The ODNB says he and Victoria Mariana Helena Friese had one child, Ethel Adelaide. He and his second wife, Edith Harrison, had six sons, one of whom died in infancy. DuncanHill (talk) 19:58, 28 May 2021 (UTC)
