Bluebeard

Méliès, 1901, Star Film: Bluebeard takes an eighth wife, forbids a door, and the first seven hang in the forbidden room like laundry. Jeanne d'Alcy is the bride. Hand-colored, a reel and more. Méliès treating Perrault as a stage illusion with a body count. The key, the blood that will not wipe off, the brothers who arrive too late and just in time. It is a féerie that has decided to be a horror film.
