Video

And he's still there, to this day...

George Melies......the Ray Bradbury, the George Lucas, the Jim Henson of his day.

that ones from seoul. 1926

Advertisements ruin this

In 2024 looking at a film from the 1800s, Very Cool! Kinda like stepping in a Time Machine. 😮

So the evil priests won in the end, beating that poor devil.

Much better without sound.

The music is good

Esto demuestra que Chaplin fue el creador del prank. Extraordinario!!!

Hate to be that guy but convent=couvent in french.

The first nunsploitation film

Yes, quite interesting - but let’s have some kind of period winter or Christmas music to it.

Apart from their being a DEVIL in a CONVENT, it bares very little relation to the short story 😂

GOOD TO BE CONSCIOUS ✨✨ ✨

Óbvio que isso não é um filme de 1899 né?!

It's fun to watch today, but it must have been absolutely amazing to viewers back in 1899.

Crazy to think this was made the same year rdr2 takes place.

What a piece of work is man...

This is absolutely astonishing for the 19th century. Thanks for sharing,,,

The Church/Pope is the Antichrist or Satan.It´s a Satanic Church.

looking beyond the technical mastery of the special effects, it's interesting to note that a group of women each holding up a cross only gets so far, but a group of men doing the same thing manage to solve the "problem" also, the comments mentioning jesus when he's nowhere to be seen in this movie lead me to google "are jesus and st micheal the same person?"...that was a rabbit hole, for sure!

If church was like this I would go every week.

Historic

Incredible props!

Still entertaining for a 120 yr old movie.

Brilliant! Beautiful!

People were easily amused in 1900.

Уникальный иллюзион !!!!!

I loved the movie, but people way back then really did not know how to pick the right music for the video.

This was 1899? I'm not trying to call our near ancestors stupid, but someone saw that and was more than half sure it was real.

A true visionary in cinema❤

Fabulous and inventive⭐️

One of oldest animated films in history.

I thought it was Mar-a-Lago.

Wow!! I'm a big fan of early films and this I have never seen before. Thank you for posting this. I'm now a subscriber.

Now, owing to the age of the film, and to the lack of technical wizardry, and also to the fact that lighting wasn't the best, I can absolutely, positively, 100 percent guarantee that I totally forgot what I was about to say.

What a great score- Perfect

Great score!

Best with the audio muted, but it shows some of the skills of the man; way ahead of anyone else. There's more of his film to be seen in the introductory episode of the HBO series, 'From The Earth To The Moon'

흥미롭다

That...was VERY, VERY, VERY strange. And while I'm no fan of the Devil's PARTAY ON, BOYS, I'm even less of a fan of gthe PIETY PIMPS.

terrible music for this

Ver personas vivas del siglo 18 es simplemente mágico

Un-convent-tional. 😀

Why were so many of these early films about devils and demons?…… also check out my analog horror channel

Belíssimo trabalho de um gênio inventor!

Any other Beefheart fans detect a possible influence in the score?
