Comments:
We have a copy at the Society of the DVD "RW Paul, the Collected Films 1895-1908", which features this film, one of his most well known. In this scene, a car is being chased by the police, and is driven towards the pub, then up the front wall and into the clouds.
See Robert Paul's photo (no.110) and advertising poster (no.111).
