More folly than revenge

 

The Witch's Revenge (1903)


Directed by Georges Melies this is an early short film. An old man is about to be condemned but is given a reprieve by the king.


I am not sure this is the witch's revenge so much as the king's folly, no good deed goes unpunished! A little bit hard to follow the plot and it does take a while to get to the actual magic parts. Nothing special for a Melies short.


3/5
