Through Edward Reynolds' collaboration with Samuel Alexander Kinnier Wilson's (SAKW) son, James, on Babylonian neurology and psychiatry, and his contact with James' nephew, Jim, grandson of SAKW, a remarkable film of patients with movement disorders, made by SAKW in the mid-1920s, has come to light.
METHODS/RESULTS: The 20-min silent film with captions by SAKW includes patients with senile tremor, Parkinson's disease and postencephalitic parkinsonism, hemiballismus, Huntington's chorea, Sydenham's chorea, hysterical palsy and tremor, multiple sclerosis, and progressive lenticular degeneration. Most of the patients are filmed in the square outside the National Hospital. The British Film Institute dates the film to 1924 and the captions to 1925. The case records of 6 of the 14 patients, who were admitted to the National Hospital, Queen Square, under the care of Dr. SAKW have been identified and summarized.
SAKW may have been stimulated and facilitated to make this film through his personal contact with Charlie Chaplin with whom he stayed at his Californian estate, probably in the summer of 1924. The first films of neurological patients were made in Europe and USA at the beginning of the 20th century, although most have perished. This may be one of the oldest examples from UK. It is also notable for the inclusion of Wilson's disease and a brief shot of SAKW himself.
通过爱德华·雷诺兹与塞缪尔·亚历山大·金尼尔·威尔逊（SAKW）的儿子詹姆斯合作，研究巴比伦的神经病学和精神病学，以及他与詹姆斯的侄子吉姆的接触，这位威尔逊的孙子，一位在 20 世纪 20 年代中期制作的运动障碍患者的精彩影片得以问世。
方法/结果：这部由 SAKW 旁白的 20 分钟无声电影包括患有老年性震颤、帕金森病和脑炎后帕金森病、半身舞蹈病、亨廷顿舞蹈病、风湿性舞蹈病、歇斯底里性麻痹和震颤、多发性硬化症和进行性核上性麻痹的患者。大多数患者都在国家医院外的广场上拍摄。英国电影协会将这部电影的拍摄日期定为 1924 年，旁白日期定为 1925 年。在国家医院，女王广场，SAKW 医生的照顾下，已经确定并总结了 14 名患者中的 6 名的病例记录。
SAKW 可能通过他与查理·卓别林的个人接触而受到启发和促成了这部电影的制作，他可能在 1924 年夏天与卓别林一起在他的加利福尼亚庄园逗留。尽管大多数电影已经消失，但在 20 世纪初，欧洲和美国已经制作了第一批神经科患者的电影。这可能是英国最早的例子之一。这部电影还值得注意的是包括了威尔逊病和对 SAKW 本人的简短镜头。
