Eine wunderschöne Hommage (1904) an Meerjungfrauen, die Georges Méliès' beliebtestes Thema aufgreift: die Magie. Ein Zauberer angelt aus seinem Zylinder Fische in unterschiedlichen Größen, die bald ein ganzes Aquarium füllen. In weiteren Tricks zieht er mehrere Kaninchen und einen Salatkopf aus seinem Hut. Schließlich lässt er eine Meerjungfrau erscheinen….
In this film, Méliès concocts a combination fairy- and morality tale about the foolishness of trying to look too deeply into the workings of an unstable and inscrutable universe. At a medieval school, an old astronomer begins to teach a class of young men, all armed with telescopes, about the art of scrutinising an imminent eclipse. When a mechanical clock strikes twelve, all the young men rush to the windows and fix their telescopes on the heavens.
