Where babies come from


The Cabbage-Patch Fairy (1896)

Directed by Alice Guy-Blance this is an early short film. A woman helps produce babies from the cabbage patch.

Very simple in terms of what happens on screen it might be a bit of a stretch to call this a true narrative experience. The production values are very decent for the period and the surviving image quality is good too. Not a bad watch but probably not one of the highlights of the early silent period.

3/5
