German Light or Lumière?

My historical-based calendar told me this morning it wasn´t the brothers Lumière who presented the first public movie but the brothers Max and Emil Skladanowsky (german) in 1895 in Berlin. The quality of the so-called "Bioscop" (german) wasn´t as good as the Lumières´ technique - but they were the first ones (two months do count, hm?). So, french people... this one goes to Germany after all ;-)
