Source: Our analysis of the creator's lived experience, based on what they said in this video.
Creator's Key Takeaways
the Lucitania departed on her final voyage and it was very heavily publicized because there had been warnings put out by the Embassy
this is a Bonafide picture and the only one in existence of the last trip of the ill faded ship
we get to see all these happy faces people boarding the ship and then this slow pan as she goes past and then slowly disappears down the down the Hudson
it's really tragic to think that if this is the final final footage ever shot of the Lucitania than she was at the bottom of the ocean within a week

In May 1915 the RMS Lusitania set out on a routine crossing bound for Liverpool - but tragically she steamed directly into a war zone and was soon sunk with a terrible loss of life. Days later, newsreels began to circulate supposedly showing the great ship's final departure from New York - but is the film legitimate? Today we'll examine and famous 'final departure' footage of the Lusitania to see if clues can help us determine if this really is the final piece of moving picture film ever captured of Cunard's magnificent doomed ocean liner.
