Did You Know?
| Trivia | Long considered lost, a 15-minute reedited version of this film was rediscovered in 1997 in Pathé-Baby format. The Pathé-Baby was a small, hand-cranked projector capable of projecting short films, packaged in a metal cartridge containing less than ten meters of non-flammable 9.5 mm film for family use. Distributors therefore had to edit shortened versions of the original films, adding intertitles to allow the viewer to follow the story. (translated from French Wikipedia) See more » |
