Le Palais de Mille et une Nuits. 1905. Directed by Georges Melies.

(2/15/00)

Another example of an early hand-colored film. This has very exotic subject matter, but it seems like a series of static tableaus. It is very interesting to look at and quite charming, but it gets tedious. The images of creatures and monsters are nothing more than quaint.
