Quote:
In what is considered the first remake in cinema history, prolific French director Georges Méliès directs his first film, depicting a delightful afternoon among friends playing cards over a glass of beer.

It was the first film in Méliès’ prolific career, and thus is number one in his Star Film catalogue. It is a remake of Louis Lumière’s film The Messers. Lumière at Cards, which was released earlier the same year. Along with Georges Méliès himself, his brother Gaston Méliès and daughter Georgette Méliès also appear in the film.

The film, long presumed lost and was rediscovered after 1981
