His creative time lapses, early experiments and use of the cinematic technique gave birth to ways of storytelling still commonly used today. This collection of shorts and experiments ranges from avant-garde to science fiction to documentary and greatly influenced the art of cinema both as a narrative form and a dreamy forum for magical imagery. Included in this collection are the following short films: 'The Four Troublesome Heads' (1898), 'Fat and Lean Wrestling Match' (1900),'The One-Man Band' (1900), 'The Man with the Rubber Head' (1901), 'Bluebeard' (1901), 'A Trip to the Moon' (1902), 'The Infernal Boiling Pot' (1903), 'The Infernal Cakewalk' (1903), 'The Music Lover (1903), The Living Playing Cards (1904), Hilarious Posters (1904), Imperceptible Transmutations' (1904), 'Untameable Whiskers' (1904), 'The Scheming Gambler's Paradise' (1905), and 'The Devilish Tenant' (1909). Also included are several early experimental tests that Melies attempted and a documentary explaining the man and his vision, 'The Magic of Melies' (1997) by Jacques Meny. ...Georges Melies Collection ( La magie Méliès / Un homme de tête / L'homme orchestre / Nouvelles luttes extravagantes / Barbe-bleue / L'homme à la tête en caoutch
