It's a box

 

The Mysterious Box (1903)

Directed by Georges Melies this is an early short film. A magic trick involving a box.

Compared to some of the other Melies films of the period this is a bit simple and lacking in wonder. It does not help that the version of this that I saw did not have very good image quality. Try some other Melies films before this one in my opinion.
