Эдисон, человек (1940)
Биографическая лента, рассказывающая об изобретателе Томасе Эдисоне. В 1869 году, в возрасте 22 лет, устав от бедной жизни и работе на телеграфе, он поехал в Нью-Йорк по совету старого друга. Томас приходит в телеграфную контору «Вестерн Юнион», рассчитывая найти там место. Он пытается убедить финансиста господина Таггарта профинансировать его изобретения. Президент компании Пауэлл соглашается дать Эдисону денег. За свою разработку — усовершенствование системы телеграфирования биржевых бюллетеней о курсе золота и акций — Томас Эдисон получает 40 000 долларов. Это становится началом новой жизни.
