A quick run through


Faust and Mephistopheles (1903)

Directed by Alice Guy-Blache this is an early short film. A man makes a deal with the devil, we all know how that goes.

This is one of those early short films that tries to cram so much plot into two minutes if you are not already familiar with the story you will get lost fast. There are some really nice settings and costumes as well as decent effects. Visually pretty nice but a little difficult to follow the narative.

3/5
