The Tulips

1907 · 4 min

A brief, dreamlike burst of hand-tinted stage magic, all blooming flowers and flickering flames, charming rather than gripping.

Tagline
Magical flowery frolics, similar to a Méliès film.
Overview
In a bower of giant tulips a boy and girl practice flower magic. They cause flowers and birds to open and human forms to issue therefrom, and on the black background of the wonderful garden there appear myriad flowers, in the center of each of which is a smiling feminine head. Tableaux showing pretty girl and flower effects are plentiful and the film winds up with a burst of multi-colored flame, which shoots in fiery splendor from leaves and petals.
