Lost to time


Magie Moderne (1908)

Directed by Segundo de Chomon this is an early short film. We see various magic tricks done by a woman.

Unfortunately what survives of this short appears to be highly damaged. There are only a few moments here and there where you really get a glimpse of the magic on offer. I am sure this was a good film but what remains is not worth seeking out.

2/5
