Cinderella or The Glass Slipper(1912)

24 Min. | Drama, Fantasy
2,6/5 (bei 7 Stimmen)

Georges Méliès's first attempt at Cinderella was in 1899. That film was extraordinary then for having multiple scenes and a semblance of a narrative; additionally, the use of dissolves as transitions in it influenced other filmmakers for years to do the same. Méliès was the cinema world's preeminent leader then. By 1912, however, that was no longer the case; frankly, as evidenced by this feature, his style had become dated. Moreover, Méliès had begun to adopt techniques from other filmmakers, such as direct cuts instead of dissolves, and there's even a match on action shot during the slipper trying-on scene.

Max next turns his attention to blacking his boots, upsets the liquid blacking, spoons it up, and a minute later is using the same spoon to stir the broth. He writes for his wife to return home, but soon after sending the letter hears he is heir to a large fortune, and lives in the seventh heaven of delight - until his wife returns." (The Bioscope, Feb. 15, 1912)

The Invaders(1912)

41 Min. | Western
2,8/5 (bei 6 Stimmen)

The Cry of the Children(1912)

29 Min.
2,7/5 (bei 6 Stimmen)

An indictment of the evils of child labor, the film was controversial in its time for its use of actual footage of children employed in a working mill.

The Knight of the Snow(1912)

3,0/5 (bei 6 Stimmen)

"The Knight of the Snow" is one of the last films Georges Méliès made. By now, he was under contract for his former rival Pathé, where he made a few of his most lavish productions, including this one. Here, Méliès performed in front of the camera as the Devil […]. His incarnation of Satan this time is a sprightly antagonist who kidnaps a princess by locking her in a cage and taking off through the sky in a dragon-pulled carriage. […].
