Jack and the Beanstalk (1902)

Directed by Edwin S. Porter, George S. Fleming

Adventure, Family, Fantasy · 10m

Porter's sequential continuity editing links several shots to form a narrative of the famous fairy tale story of Jack and his magic beanstalk. Borrowing on cinematographic methods reminiscent of 'Georges Melies' , Porter uses animation, double exposure, and trick photography to illustrate the fairy's apparitions, Jack's dream, and the fast growing beanstalk.
