Wikipedia article




'Love and Molasses', also known as 'His First Job' and in French as 'Amour et mlasse', is a 1908 French short silent film credited to Georges Mlis. It was sold in the United States by Mlis's Star Film Company and is numbered 12461249 in its catalogues; no release is documented in Mlis's native France at the time.

A 1981 analysis of the film's style, published in a Centre national de la cinmatographie guide to Mlis's work, concluded that this film is probably one of those directed by Mlis's employee, an actor known as Manuel. The "molasses" featured in the film is actually water; the film's special effects are worked with substitution splices.
