Wikipedia article
'Le Voyage de la famille Bourrichon' (known in English as 'The Voyage of the Bourrichon Family' or 'The Voyage of the Family Bourrichon') is a 1912 French silent film directed by Georges Mlis, based on a music-hall comedy by Eugne Labiche. It is a comedy in the style of Max Linder, and is notable for being Mlis's last film.
Like all of Mlis's 19111912 films, 'The Voyage of the Bourrichon Family' was made under the supervision of Charles Path and was planned for release by the Path Frres studio. The film was probably completed by Mlis at the end of 1912 (or possibly the beginning of 1913), and was advertised as an upcoming release in the French 'Cin-Journal' in May 1913. Some accounts claim that Path did not actually ever release it.
The film was presumed lost as late as 2000, but was rediscovered in time to be included on a 2008 DVD collection of Mlis's films.
