'Un miracle sous l'inquisition', sold in the United States as 'A Miracle Under the Inquisition' and in Britain as 'A Miracle of the Inquisition', is a 1904 French short silent film by Georges Mlis. It was sold by Mlis's Star Film Company and is numbered 558559 in its catalogues.
Mlis appears in the film as the executioner, with a Mademoiselle Bodson as the accused woman. Her distinctive dress, with its four large squares embroidered with animal figures, was reused for Mlis's later films 'The Witch' and 'The Good Shepherdess and the Evil Princess'. The special effects of the miracle are carried out with pyrotechnics, substitution splices, and dissolves.
