Long Distance Wireless Photography (1908) Georges Méliès

Into a photography studio full of large fantastic machines steps an elderly couple. The bearded proprietor explains the equipment and gives them a demonstration and projects a painting of three women onto a large screen; suddenly the women begin to move. The customers are impressed. First the women sits in the special seat: she's projected onto the screen, and her good nature comes out in the laughing image. Then it's the man's turn, but on the screen it projects a painted, apelike Friar Tuck face. The man dets angry and tries to wreck the machine getting an electric jolt in the process.

Je suis impressionné de comme un simple court-métrage peut transmettre beaucoup de choses sans aucun bruite, avec le simple fait d'avoir des acteurs et l'histoire est assez pour transmettre le message. Dans ce petit court-métrage "La Photographie électrique à distance" par Georges Méliès (1908) est très amusant pour moi principalement par comme les personnages sont surpris de tous les appareils dans le studio et aussi comme dans ces années déjà existé la projection d'images.

I don't think it's great like Four Heads are Better than One, A Trip to the Moon, or India Rubber Head, but I still think it's really good.

That was a funny ending.
