The Spider and the Butterfly (1909)
Directed by Georges Melies this is an early short film. A magician makes a butterfly woman appear, then a spider woman.
Unfortunately this is only a surviving fragment of a longer film and it shows, the opening in particular is a bit disconnected. While I enjoy the colour tinting and set dressing by 1909 the film is lacking a bit in plot. A glimpse of what was even if not the full thing.
3/5
