Wikipedia article




'The Good Shepherdess and the Evil Princess' is a 1908 French short silent film credited to Georges Mlis. It was sold by Mlis's Star Film Company and is numbered 14291441 in its catalogues.

A Centre national de la cinmatographie guide to Mlis's films, analyzing the film's style, concludes that it was probably directed not by Mlis but by an employee of his, an actor-director known as Manuel. Special effects in the film are worked by stage machinery, pyrotechnics, substitution splices, and dissolves. The film was shot partly in one of Mlis's glass studios in Montreuil-sous-Bois, and partly outdoors, in the garden of Mlis's family property next to the studios.

Only an incomplete print of the film is known to exist; the rest is presumed lost.
