Commentaire à la une
The second (and best) remake of the earliest narrative film, by the first female filmmaker
The first female filmmaker in the world, Alice Guy, made her debut in 1896 in a short film about the fairy of the cabbages, a French fairytale. That historical film (not only the first film by a woman but arguably also rhe earliest narrative film!) is unfortunately lost, and it is often confounded with a remake from 1900. That second film with just 30 seconds is uninteresting, but Guy made, two years afterwards, one more remake, four-minute long. This 1902 version has some mockery both on buying children and while dealing with dolls instead of real babies. That was funny, in the first part. The second part, however, is longer than it would be desirable, unnecessarily (and I am not sure if the doll in the second part - 2'24'' - was representing a black human... I seriously hope it was not!). The film is interesting, anyway. Alice Guy herself also dressed as a man in order to act as part of the couple who was asking the fairy for a baby, what is also remarkable.
