The Kingdom of Fairies
(1903)
Directed by Georges
Melies this is an early short film that stars it's director,
Marguerite Thevenard and Bleuette Bernon. A witch has a princess
kidnapped by fairies.
Taking a pretty simple
story Melies lavishes on his own unique style to make a sumptuous
looking early film. A feast for the eyes if not a challenge for the
brain this is still a great watch none the less. This film really
exemplifies the skill of the early master at it's helm.
4/5
