Devilish Tenant, The (1909)
aka Locataire diabolique, Le
*** (out of 4)
Georges Melies film about a man who rents an apartment and furnishes the entire thing with one box. It's easy to see how the trickery was done in this film but that doesn't take away from the fun. The real highlight is the wonderful ending of how the man finally gets rid of everything.
In early 2008 a box set with over 170 Meiles films will be released and it's certainly long overdue.
