Colour makes the difference

 

A Serpentine Dance (1896)


Directed by Georges Melies this early short film likely features Loie Fuller. A woman does a serpentine dance.


What sets this film apart from a number of similar films of the period is the use of colour tinting. I really enjoy the way the colour changes through out the film, doing so seamlessly. A cut above the rest.
