Watch the first kiss in the history of cinema, filmed by Thomas Edison.
"In 1896, the famed inventor, futurist, and elephant electrocution archivist made history yet again by recording the first kiss in cinema history. This clip, which featured a mustachioed fellow leering over Canadian actress Mae Irwin, was considered scandalous at the time, but Edison was no stranger to courting controversy. This was the man who pioneered cat boxing, after all."
