Wikipedia article
'Miss de Vre (English Jig)' was an 1896 French silent film directed by Georges Mlis. It was released by Mlis's Star Film Company and is numbered 45 in its catalogues. The performer, the "Miss de Vre" of the title, is the dancer and actress Elise de Vre. She was, along with Clementine de Vere, a daughter of Charles de Vere (real name H. S. G. Williams), an Englishman who had worked as a professional magician and who was then the owner of a Paris shop selling conjuror's supplies, electrical equipment, and films.
'Miss de Vre' in a complete form is currently presumed lost, but a flipbook produced by Lon Beaulieu around 189697, rediscovered in the mid-2010s in a private collection, appears to preserve a fragment of the film.
