Movies - Charles Urban


Charles Urban (April 15 1867 - August 29 1942) was an Anglo-American film producer and distributer, and one of the most significant figures in UK cinema before the First World War.

He filmed first in black and white and then in Kinemacolor between 1908 and 1914. Kinemacolor was a system of creating colour movies by an additive composite of primary colours. One of his films was a two and a half hour epic "With Our King and Queen Through India", depicting the December 1911/1912 Delhi Durbar which celebrated the coronation of George V.

In 1904 the Shakespearean actor Herbert Beerbohm Tree
allowed Urban to film the storm scene from his production of The Tempest.
