Join us for a special celebration of the father of special effects, Georges Melies, featuring his greatest epics from the early 1900s. This special presentation includes rare tinted and hand-colored film prints accompanied by non-traditional musical selections including world music, avant-garde jazz and early electronic music. The film THE IMPOSSIBLE VOYAGE (1904) will include a rare live performance of Melies' original narration combined with an audio collage of period 78-RPM records (compiled by Robert Millis and Jeffrey Taylor of Climax Golden Twins) played live on real Victrolas.
"Georges Melies was the father of motion picture magic until the day it outgrew him and, like one of his clever illusions, he vanished." -David Jeffers
