The Enchanted Well (1903) Georges Méliès

This film was directed / created by Georges Méliès and released in France in 1903 under the name, "Le Puits Fantastique."
Towns people walk past the village well. A man and a mule stop nearby as the man prepares to get water. An old lady accosts the man and begs a hand-out, but the man refuses. As he turns back to deal with his mule, the lady reveals herself a witch and curses the well, then leaves, shaking her fist.
The man returns and fetches water, but when he pours it from the well bucket into his own bucket, the water turns to flame. A demon appears over the well, laughing at the man. As the man rushes at the well, the demon disappears, and the well suddenly surges out of the ground into the sky like Jack's beanstalk.
Two snakes come out of the side of the well and taunt the man, then disappear. Three demons appear, jeer at the man, and disappear. The base of the well opens up and a dragon emerges, classic Méliès!

They can't make that money like they used to on here from UA-cam going after these types of channels for recuse of content.

[@xbrandi12345x]

Did they shut down or did the person behind it die? I never noticed anything new wasn't posted here until I read your comment and can't find anything on Google Search about it either so if you are still out there somewhere in UA-cam land, please let me know what happened. Thanks.

[@BrokeMoeHowardUHF]

No more videos? You get the old reuse of content from UA-cam buddy?

[@AnImalsruIe]

i think the owner of this channel either forgot about it or died

[@dques]

There’s no sound..

[@xbrandi12345x]

Not sure if you are kidding or not but in the event you're serious, there's not supposed to be any sound. It's a silent film. Sometimes they have music accompany them but not always.

[@Fuffy192]

Sometimes old films don't have sound in the 1900s
