Early dreams

A Nightmare (1896)

Directed by George Melies this is an early short film. A man trying to sleep has some vivid nightmares.

This is a very simple early film which is barely longer than a minute. The plot is simple and just an excuse to try out some camera tricks. For the most part the camera tricks work but they are not as polished as some of Melies's other efforts.


3/5
