This Georges Melies film is one of several to appear in only a fragment form. The film opens up with a title card explaining what happens in the missing parts of the movie. Basically a man wants to give some flowers to a stage star but a prankster instead gives them to an obese cleaning woman.

🎬 MovieFinder's Take

Méliès constructs a comedic vignette around the contrast between the sublime and the mundane, relying on his signature object substitution and social stereotypes.

What lingers after viewing is the charm of a miniature where every trick serves as a precise metaphor for human vanity. — MovieFinder Editorial

Director: Georges Méliès
