Wikipedia article




'The Sick Kitten' is a 1903 British short silent comedy film, directed by George Albert Smith, featuring two young children tending to a sick kitten.

Significance



A remake of the director's now-lost 'The Little Doctor' (1901), 'The Sick Kitten', according to Michael Brooke of BFI Screenonline, "continues the editing technique that he first explored in 'Grandma's Reading Glass' (1900) and 'As Seen Through a Telescope' (1900)," but, "without the circular black mask to differentiate it," as presumably, "Smith believed that his audience would have grown more sophisticated and would be able to tell the difference between a medium shot and close-up without prompting."
