Well... In the mood of the 50's, it would probably be a square jawed male in 
torn shirt, riding trousers and boots, running away, tugging a hysterical 
girl in a torn dress, somewhere in the nearest foreground  :-)
However, that would not do justice to Wells' book. Better would be two men 
in final 19th century dress, the narrator and the vicar come immediately to 
mind, looking on or fleeing from the scene. Not easy to do but oh! what high 
drama! :-)
