Summary: The film industry was just over a year old when Georges Méliès (1861-1938) made this highly successfully staged short comedy. Every second of this minute of film is used to construct the character’s action and movements. The film maker made use of the theatre’s three-dimensional decor, so reminiscent of the influence the performing arts had on his huge repertoire. (Europa Film Treasures)
