What happens
Dick Turpin's Ride to York รจ un cortometraggio muto del 1906 diretto e interpretato da Lewin Fitzhamon. Prodotto dalla Hepworth, fu il primo film britannico a un rullo. La storia del film si basa su una leggendaria fuga di Dick Turpin, un bandito vissuto in Inghilterra dal 1705 al 1739, il quale avrebbe coperto i 320 chilometri che separano Londra da York in una sola notte in groppa al suo fedele cavallo nero Bess.
