"Journey to the Moon" tells the story of six explorers riding a cannonball-shaped spaceship and launching cannons to the moon.
After the spacecraft touched down on the moon's eye, the explorers looked at Earth from afar and fell asleep there.
They were surrounded by stars, and the moon snowed. They then entered the lunar subsurface, where they encountered unfriendly lunar natives. After defeating the king of the lunar natives, the six explorers successfully returned to Earth in spaceships and brought back a lunar native.
The film ends with a ceremony praising the explorer.
The plot is bizarre but complete, the sets and props are rough but full of innocence and imagination, and the shooting skills are primitive but effective.
It's hard to imagine that this was a movie shot 120 years ago. The director, Méliès, only used the camera in his hand to use the magician's technique to show the fantastic scene in his mind on the big screen.
