This famous film was ACTUALLY MADE IN 1897, Lumière catalogue #653: https://catalogue-lumiere.com/arrivee-train-a-la-ciotat/
People have studied the age of the Lumière children from several of their Ciotat train films and this uncatalogued version is more likely from 1896: youtu.be/1dgLEDdFddk
With that aside, the 4K restoration from the 2015 Blu-ray of the 1897 film is gorgeous! The Lumière brothers were masters of perspective and framing. youtu.be/1FAj9fJQRZA
