Long-Distance Wireless Photography
aka Photographie électrique à distance
First screened in December 2018
Director: Georges Méliès. Cast: Georges Méliès, Fernande Albany.

Twitter Capsule: Peak imagination, audacity, and wit, even for Méliès, with anti-elitist jabs. The frame teems!

VOR:   Not every trick was new for this filmmaker, but they woulde be for anyone else. Historically specific and prescient as a view of art.
