PETIT POUCET, LE (1909)

Autre(s) titre(s): PULGARCITO (1909)
Genre: Short film
Année: 1909
Description: Adaptation of the fairy tale, TOM THUMB, by Charles Perrault: The parents of a very poor family decide they must abandon their seven children in a forest where they get into some tricky situations trying to escape from an ogre intent on killing them. A cinematographic work that exemplifies Chomón's transition from 'cinema of attractions' to narrative, where the film trickery no longer features as the central element, but one that supports the narrative discourse.
