Decades before the term 'special effects' was coined, audiences of the new-born cinema were witnessing spectacular screen illusions, courtesy of the medium's first master magician: George Melies. This DVD is a documentary on the filmmaker's life, integrating rare photographs, early drawings, and numerous clips. It charts Melies' rise from shoe factory worker to proprietor of Paris' mystical Theatre Robert-Houdin where he learned the skills to become a cinematic illusionist and developed an interest in the supernatural.
