Bob Singer Senior Series--Magic of Méliès

Bob Singer Senior Series--Magic of Méliès

Early French silent filmmaker Georges Melies made delightful, humorous short films at the birth of cinema in the 1890s and early 1900s. He almost single-handedly invented movie special effects in his largely fantasy-type films. Enjoy excerpts from his films, some in color, with this presentation.

This program has been organized by the Virginia Museum of Fine Arts and is supported, in part, by the Paul Mellon Endowment and the Jean Stafford Camp Memorial Fund. Sponsored by the Friends of the Library.
