Helping Feed the Cat
7 August 2015
La petite fille et son chat (1899)

Louis Lumiere directed this picture which shows a little girl sitting in her chair trying to feed a cat. At first the cat appears willing but he then jumps off only to be thrown back on the girl. These early films sometimes just had directors turning the camera on hoping to catch something special. This is a pretty fun film to watch because the cat eventually gets more interested in what's going on and at one point the girl takes the food away only to have the cat use its paws to try and get it back. There's certainly nothing ground-breaking here but it's an entertaining film that even today's audiences would enjoy.
