Japanese Butterflies
(1908)
Directed by Segundo de
Chomon this is an early short film. We see a silk worm come to life.
Mixing various types
of trick photography this is a fairly decent special effects film.
Unfortunately like so many of Chomon's films this one has white
people in yellow face. An interesting diversion but has not aged well
in all regards.
2/5
