Viaje a la Luna
"The Kingdom of the Fairies", like Méliès's similarly spectacular films "A Trip to the Moon" (1902) and "The Impossible Voyage" (1904), was one of the most popular films of the first few years of the twentieth century. When Thomas L. Tally debuted the film at his Lyric Theater in Los Angeles in 1903 (billing it as "Better than "A Trip to the Moon""), the "Los Angeles Times" called the film "an interesting exhibit of the limits to which moving picture making can be carried in the hands of experts equipped with time and money to carry out their devices."
