The first lip sync battle


Felix Mayol Performs “Indiscreet Questions” (1906)

Directed by Alice Guy-Blache this early film stars Felix Mayol. A short clip of Felix Mayol lip syncing to a song.

Impressive in both early use of colour and lip syncing but otherwise not a huge amount to comment on. Certainly worth checking out for being a milestone in film making but the song is nothing special. One for the film historians.

3/5
