Life in Jaffa

“In the films of Méliès, it is the whole world of gilt-edged books from awards ceremonies that comes to life; the world of fairy tales revisited by the magic lantern, the world of a trip around the globe, of famous tightrope walkers and illusionists, of fake, plush-fringed Gothic furniture.” (Henri Langlois, undated note, La Cinémathèque française administrative archives).
