A Trip to the moon(1902)

Today, I watched the movie is called "A trip to the moon"(1902) by Georges Melies.

It was weird but the pictures were beautiful.
It's very analogue, all the sets were handmade.
But somehow those antique techniques were making the pictures more pretty.

As it's silent movie, there might be a several version of the movie.
The one I watched was colour with "modern" music.
Although I enjoyed the picture very much, I didn't like the background music.
I felt like the music was making the atmosphere of the movie a little ugly.

However I found this on youtube and this is black&white, but this version is so much better!!
I really like the scene when stars rise with faces.
It's really like a magical!!
