Featured review
I'm going to have to disagree with the other reviewer when he says this is Melies' second film; he had been making films for a while, and this one, showing him performing a translocation trick, the IMDb thinks its his 58th film. They turned them out fast in those days.
Still, second or 58th, it's good to see this. In the middle of the 1920s, when he seemed all but forgotten, a film club in Paris tried to put on a show of Melies' movies, and could only locate nine of them. I expect many of them are permanently lost, but we have a lot more of his more than 500 films available these days. Finding them is the real trick.
