- A Trip to the Moon (French: Le Voyage dans la lune) is a 1902 French black and white silent science fiction film. It is loosely based on two popular novels of the time: From the Earth to the Moon by Jules Verne and The First Men in the Moon by H. G. Wells
The film was written and directed by Georges Méliès, assisted by his brother Gaston. The film runs 14 minutes if projected at 16 frames per second, which was the standard frame rate at the time the film was produced. It was extremely popular at the time of its release and is the best-known of the hundreds of fantasy films made by Méliès. A Trip to the Moon is the first science fiction film, and utilizes innovative animation and special effects, including the iconic shot of the rocketship landing in the moon's eye
t was named one of the 100 greatest films of the 20th century by The Village Voice, ranking in
This Version features a Soundtrack by Erich Wolfgang Korngold & Laurence Rosenthal
If only movies like Gravity and Interstellar were as scientifically accurate like the spectacle we see here.
Gravity kind of was. The entire plot was built around George Clooney dying because of an imaginary force pulling him away.
This movie is 110 years old.. And I dare anyone here on youtube remake this video from scratch.. and do it better.
I remember this movie. I was an extra in it 😊
@@yourmajesty7592 Pfft! That's nothing! I just uploaded a film that's 118 yrs old and I did the special effects! XD
I just did and I did not save it ;(
who the hell even downvotes a 1902 black and white sci fi film? Sorry, were the special effects not good enough for you?
morons
It’s really good imo. It’s amazing to watch people that were born in the 1800s. How animated they were!
People who get it in their recommendations who din't want it there. Or people who where looking for something else... Or mabye just misclicks
@@terminatorx2545 Very true, especially with how stoic they all seem in their pictures!
Francophobes, that's whom!
"We need to get a man on the moon."
"Uhh...... we could put them in a giant bullet and shoot them at it?"
"..........BRILLIANT! But wait, how are they supposed to get back to Earth?"
"Oh. That's easy. Just have them push the bullet off the edge and they'll fall back down."
"GENIUS"
Creative at least
They dreamed about visiting the moon, they had never seen it.
Guys, this movie isn't made to be scientificaly accurate, neither was Star Wars. It's a dream, a fantasy, an acid trip without LSD, a fairy tale made with a lot of imagination and technical inventions.
+Delph Zouzou How inisightful
Agreed
Opiates were big round that time though :)
As an aspiring engineer, I feel deeply offended. I do not know for sure whether NASA has been bullshitting us. It is entirely possible, but I don't see why Apollo missions were scientifically impossible. *Humanity is technologically more developed than you probably think.*
Even the Ancient Greeks and Chinese know how to make things move on their own, through hydraulics and pneumatics. 19-20th century engineers developed electric motors. Wartime engineers developed radio technology, and perfected control theory. We had television technology, even in the 1960s. I don't see why the engineers at NASA can just steal all these technology to MacGyver an automated TV camera that filmed the lander taking off from the moon.
Rockets? The Ancient Chinese knew that technology. Tsiolkovsky and von Braun perfected that. Radiation shielding? What did the 1940s bombers at Hiroshima use to protect the pilots from getting cooked from their own atomic bomb? Now just make them thicker to protect those filthy astrynaughts. Air con? We can just use the same technology as scuba diving and hospitals catering to lung-sick patients, they are totally not new technologies. Hook them up to the A/C system. Navigation? Ever heard of gyroscopes? They are fun things, and the mechanics of the gyroscope was pretty well-understood even in the 1700s, thanks to L. Euler.
*Yes, most of these technologies are terribly expensive at that time, so NASA conspiracy could be real. But I just don't see why moon landing is impossible using 1960s technologies.* Remember that Soviets were also racing for the moon. If KGB had somehow reasoned that moon landing is fake, the Soviets would be dying to tell the whole world that Apollo is bullshit. Yet they did not.
None of these can be explained by straight answers. Try learning any engineering (not just space engineering) only by getting straight answers, you can't. In fact, the beauty of our technology lies in the complexity that emerges from simple physical laws; those complexities can't be explained by simple comments in the press releases.

That said, could we just stand back and reflect what wonders has mankind did in the past 10 millennia? And what can we do to shape our future? It's truly, truly marvelous; there is no point in second-guessing ourselves; there is no point to be bothered with petty politics of all this.
well well, aspiring engineer. I hope once you advence in your courses you will find that Newtons third law (action reacion), requieres a medium (air or water) to enable the propulsion forces to act on it....So if Space is a vaccum then there is no way rocket tecnology could possibly work on the vaccum. And Yes, NASA has been deceving the public long time ago....We could say is the biggest propaganda corporation in the earth
rockets, unlike jet engines, can work in vacuum, and it is consistent with Newton's third law.
do you even know what a rocket is, and how is it different from jet engines? explain the difference between the two and we can start debating the above point.
It's crazy to think that every single person in this is dead, and probably has been for a very long time..
+Scalith_ Not necessarily...
+Scalith_ Cool cat loves you
Why would it be? It was made 110+ years ago
Scalith_ Except the moon 🌝
Back at the time when Cinema was FRENCH.
A time without Hollywood.
in those days, thomas edison basically had a monopoly on american film thanks to one of his patent companies
Was an european time. Its impressive how a war can change a country. Before WW1, US didn't exist..
star wars better
@@Pubs9495 Even he "pirated" this movie screening a copy in US before Méliès had a chance
We invented the very best of things: film, cinema, perfumes, cooking, baguettes, fromage, fashion etc. That's why yanks hate us cos everything is better in French and in France! XD
EDITING so YT doesn't truncate my words: Also we rewrote
and then dubbed Jerry Lewis to actually make him FUNNY!
That bearded scientist is such a BAMF.
Smashing aliens with an umbrella, throwing their king around like a flimsy ragdoll, dragging a rocket from the moon to earth with his bare hands...
Norris, Willis, Statham, Schwarzenegger, Lee, Stallone, Jackson...none of them have shit on him. The original action hero: random bearded old 1902 space scientist.
got here from Hugo :D
same here
me too
Me to
its a book check it out its really good
That too was a great movie. And I've always had an odd likeness for this Trip to the Moon movie since I was a kid.
Just think Everyone who was in or work on the movie is dead.
Thanks, Captain Sunshine.
I'm Very Angry It's Not Butter Yeah, but it was a cute kitty who said it...
I was just thinking the exact same thing. Great "movie" though. For as old as it is it was done well.
just think everyone who has commented on this video will die someday
quatlego I wont, I know that I can live fforever
thats a good short for 1900s 5 stars
Anyone else think this is creepy as hell?
1902
No.
Very
Who came here after watching Hugo?
Me
ha, expected
Mariia Määttä or after reading the book
Mariia Määttä well actually reading the book...:/
I was watching porno.. I dont now what happened
That's the secret plans to the Death Star on that chalk board!
Needs more Smashing Pumpkins
HOLY CRAP. I was listening to them before I started watching this, and after, as I read the comment section (Neverlost). Are you a magician?!
TONIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIGHT
This is very good to be the first SCI FI of the history!
An elegant masterpiece that captures the possibility of shapes to come.
If NASA really went to the Moon. Where are the Moon-mushrooms?
I remember watching this with my dad when I was younger. I have fond memories of this film because it was something silly, genius, and enjoyable all wrapped into one 12 minute movie, and it brought us closer together. But for some reason, I never bothered to ask what it was called. By chance, I rediscovered not only the film but its backstory by watching Hugo a couple weeks ago. I'm so glad I found this again. Thank you, Melies, for making life a little more enjoyable :)
Anyone else get creepy vibes from this?
Hey! I think I know the story! So some guys are dressing up in some weird pajamas and playing instruments, then we see majora's mask moon coming and then a bullet appears in it's eyeball and it pukes on the earth while cast of duck dynasty walks out and we see the most scientifically accurate film ever!
If you havent seen it..i highly rcommend HUGO directed and co-produced by Martin Scorsese and adapted for the screen by John Logan..a lovely film with Georges Méliès at the core of the plot
Cj Berry it was also produced by johnny depp who is very much a fond of this petite cinema verite
7:44 i laughed my head off LOL
i was waiting for the smashing pumpkins to start playing.
Is that moon from majoras mask?
I wonder what people at that time thought about this film
Alberto Ramirez It seems like they didn't care what they were watching, they just thought it was fun to watch moving pictures.
It was first movie had to be amazing.
HOLY SHIT BEST ACTION MOVIE EVER. Best CGI better than any other move!
beats gravity
quatlego Beats interstellar
When do you think computer was invented lol
Mustafa Kesim I don't know because there is people that are years a head of us right now with more advance technology than a computer
***** CGI stands for Computer Generated Imagery so i was pointing out the fact that there was no computer back then, therefore there was no CGI
I find George Melies' work really inspiring! He was so far ahead of his time. He also helps remind us that no matter what our resources are, we can make great movies. I love watching films such as this that were so influential to all filmmakers. LIKE ME! :)
I love this music so much. The movie is really well done and to me is like a fantastic dream. Some people here, in the comments, think that their understanding of the Universe is much more thruthful than the one shown in this movie. Well, I feel sorry for them. That's kind of limited thinking. As if I was proud of being able to count "2*2" (having no idea of differential equations and other stuff) as someone could only count "1+1".
4:30 - 4:46 Majora's Mask
remember to always take your umbrella with you when going to the moon
This was really interesting watching it with some modern trance and techno music.
Question: was the music added to the film later, or was it in originally?
Btw: thank you for uploading this. It's amazing to see how far film has come and how it has drastically changed. Many films today have no artistic value.
I was wondering how they were going to get back home :D
Holy shit I can't believe how amazing the audio is for that time.
The original film has no sound, somebody has added sound for this RUclips video.
this was made during the silent era
I'm glad this is in The Invention of Hugo Cabret. That is my favorite book(:
Based on a True Story.
GaelicCelt1990 how is this based on a true story?
@@harvestercommander3250 r/wooosh
the last 2 minutes are missing: they celebrate and the captured moon creature is shown
in 1902 there is oxygen on the moon wooooooooooow
+B. Ibrahim It was 1900!
+TheReaperOfSouls Even back then scientists were aware of there being no lunar atmosphere.
+B. Ibrahim That's why this is called a fiction film smh
+Cameron Barnes Emphasis on the FICTION part...
And the daftest thing about it, IS YOUR COMMENT!
Omg i remember crying when the scenes frm this movie came up on Hugo -- its so beautiful!!!(:
Still better than Twilight.
I cannot imagine why it would take a group of girls dressed in silly sailor costumes to push a shell into a gun.
Holy acid
really interesting movie...forget the wrong elements...they hav shown rocket with astronauts falling in ocean which is still in practice ...and the movie came approx. 60 years before the first manned space program was launched
I would think that would be common sense even back than since the concept of gravity already had existed from more than 100+ years. Would you really want to be in a space ship that was free-falling (accelerating at 9.81 m/s^2) onto Earth's surface and crash land on the surface of the ocean? Or on solid ground?
How this didn't win Oscar wearies me
+Debo Popoola (popson) It could be that the Academy Awards (a.k.a. Oscar) was introduces in 1929 with two years of retroactive awarding. This film is from 1902.
I remember that moon with the bullet capsule idk where though
The movie Hugo possibly?
I would say the effects are pretty damn good for the 1900s
...huh i swear i saw this in Hugo... so it's a real movie?
I am glad that Hugo brings these films into the minds of viewers. I believe that the heart of film making was in it's infancy, when it wasn't about making money. Back then, film makers had the time of their lives watching their imagination come to life on the screen and breathing life into the wondrous ideas they had. Films, I feel, had a heart and a soul in those days, and they were made with love.
Hugo is an exceptional film by my standards, and I mean that in the truest sense of the word.
It must have been absolutely mindblowing for ppl to see this back in the day. Would have been considered state of the art, kinda like Avatar now, but way more groundbreaking and astonishing, given that film was still a new art form.
This is one Of my favorites!! the Good Old days, I never get tired Of this movie. Love it!! ♥
This Movie is about NASA new Orion Spacecraft to the Moon.
Where's the parade scene?
I had read about this movie before Hugo (the movie or the book), because it was an article on the first sci-fi movie. I saw Hugo recently, and it blew my mind when I saw the picture of the bullet in the man on the moon's eye. The fact that Hugo incorporated real events from George Melies's life is amazing. I imagine that many of the other movies of George Melies depicted in the movie actually existed. 200 of the 531 movies made by Melies have been saved, according to Wikipedia.
Steampunk moon travel version right here folks !
The special effects are quite stunning for a film made in 1902. The successful flight was not achieved until the Wright Brothers first accomplished it a full year later. The sets are amazing as well.
the newts in the fish tank are SO cute!!!!
Who's watching this movie in 2021?
Meanwhile in 1900s hogwarts~
The women show alot of skin for 1902.
I was in absolute awe of the action scenes the first time I watched this, still am. The moon king body slam!
This is the LeRoy print. This isn’t the whole film.
Does anybody else find it weird to think that everybody involved in the production of this film is dead?
I was thinking exactly the same! Strange idea indeed.
Saw this in my film class. It's amazing how far filmmaking has come :D
Realmente incrivel este filme... Visionario
detalhes surpreedentes!!
BRAVO, BRAVO
It was by chance that I stumbled upon this before 'hugo' so when I was reading the book I knew exactly where the picture the machine drew was from.
holy mushrooms
07:18 Mmmhhh I'm on the moon so I randomly feel like sticking my umbrella into the ground. LOL it turned into a mushroom
Unlike misterjim100, I have a GREAT appreciation for fine filming! It's amazing that they had no concept of spacesuits or anything. I often wish that space travel was that easy. A wonderful film!
i just looked this up after watching hugo!
It was soo cool ;D
The moon face gave me nightmares when I was a kid and watching Hugo made me remember it again lol
can anyone tell me who owns the images to a trip to the moon? I need to use them for a free ebook
Great wideo. I posted film on supernius.pl - 1902 years, George Melies sets off the camera in "A Trip to the Moon," and so created the first science fiction film ever! Crazy times!
How amazing was Scorsese's "Hugo"? 3-D taken to a whole new level of storytelling. Finally someone uses it for the most powerful effect of all - EMOTION!
Wow this movie was insane I was on the edge of my seat the whole time. Like the part when the moon men started attacking literally just came out of nowhere but I kept watching regardless. Very Powerful, Ahead of it's time film.
Who's watching in 2020
I loved "The Invention of Hugo Cabret". I read it about five years ago and just got to watch the movie. After the movie I had to see if George Melies was fact or fiction. So glad I did this is MARVELOUS!!
I found this because I just watched 'Hugo"
The George Méliès film is way better!
"Hugo" brought me here, too. Great, great story about the origin of films. It's good to know more about Méliès.
The Origins of NASA and Hollywood playing tricks on us. But really super cool!
I've always liked silen films like Charlie Chaplin and the old classics as they really engage me but Hugo was great as it taught me more about George Melies and his work who was brilliantly played by Ben Kingsley. Thanks for uploading!
Will our concepts of what 100 years be like from now be just as absurd looking to people 100 years from now? Will they also laugh their arse off when they see how wrong we were?
Hugo was amazing! I never realised George was a real person
@ajswhufc No man, that makes him 97 years old.
Acabo de ver "HUGO" de Scorsesse. Maraviloso homenaje a Meliés. Y me resulta increíble ver su obra por internet!!!
It was made by the french in 1902..... just don't question it.
All these 'like if you came from Hugo" comments.. -_- I came here due to Humanities class... lol. I also recommend watching The Impossible Voyage" and "The Conquest of the North Pole," both by Melies. Enjoy!
What with all the moon people exploding, I can only assume that the Méliès brothers were the distant predecessors of a certain Mr. Bay.
A true classic, thank you for posting.
تقريباً 112 سنة مضت على أول عمل إخراجي لفيلم خيال علمي , أعتقد أن المخرج كان يتمتع بقدرات ومهارات قوية في مجال التصوير والإخراج ! , ( أنا أتكلم عن التقنيات المستخدمة في تلك الحقبة )
Seeing them tow in the rocket…NASA did the same thing about 60 years later...
Fun fact: this movie was the inspiration for the original Space Mountain at Disneyland Paris; it was even originally called Space Mountain- From the Earth to the Moon before they re-themed it in the mid-2000s.
Further proof that Disney ties back to everything. xD
No me gusta la música de Rinsky Korsakov para esta película. El "Capricho Español" me encanta, no obstante. Pero para el viaje a la luna de melies no me gusta nada.
If anyone wanna watch a good film from the silent movie area I highly recommend you watch the 2010 restoration of Metropolis. Not only is Metropolis the most expensive silent movie of all its a movie it pretty much invented the sci-fi genre. It has stunning visuals and special effects that were way way way ahead of their time; especially the scene were the robot comes to life - even now after seeing so much CGI in films that scene still stands up and is something of a wonder.
Those girls in the beginning looked pretty good! I know for that time this was probably revolutionary, but boy would these people be blown away by watching our modern movies like Inception, Iron man 3, Transformers, Batman... I'm sure someone will be saying the same thing about us too...
Huh. Sure would be a fine how-do-you-do if the first aliens to visit Earth were jolly old men in top hats and coat tails. *lol*
Interesting piece of trivia here; the alien playing the leader of the moon men would eventually achieve immortality in the role of Greedo in Star Wars.
This film was made 60 years before human beings landed on the moon!how rapidly is our technology growth over the past one hundred years!hard to imagine what it will be in 2120?
George Mélies is king of cinematography. This movie is the first science fiction movie.
He's so bright and milky white, shining down upon the ground.
Finished reading The Invention of Hugo Cabret today.
