Not that ingenious


Ingenious Soubrette (1903)

Directed by Ferdinand Zecca this is an early short film. Rather than wait for a butler to bring a ladder a maid climbs the walls.

Simple in concept an execution there is not a lot to this film. It is pretty obvious how the “special effect” is done and it is not overly impressive. Not the height of early cinema really.

3/5
