'Lasso Thrower' is a lost 1894 black-and-white short silent film from Edison Studios, produced by William K. L. Dickson with William Heise as cinematographer. It has a 60-second runtime and was filmed on a single reel, using standard 35 mm gauge, in Edison's Black Maria studio. The film, an exhibition of roping skills by Mexican vaquero Vicente Oropeza is one of several shot by Dickson and Heise after Thomas Edison invited William F. Cody and his 'Buffalo Bill's Wild West' show performers to the kinetoscope studio.
