The Pillar of Fire (1899)
Directed by Georges Melies this film stars the director and Jehanne d'Alcy. A devil conducts a ritual with a pot over a fire.
A scene worthy of any good d&d campaign is on show here. Melies is making a film well ahead of its time in terms of the level of artistry on show here. You will be hard pressed to find anything even close to this level in the same period.
4/5
