I saw the hand-colored version. The film was originally in black and white, and later the film was manually colored one by one. So some places will look a little weird.
But this is definitely a sincere work in film history.
1. It can be seen from the movie that the concept of astronomical science at that time
started with a group of scientists discussing how to go to the moon. Their method was to launch a travel capsule containing scientists to the moon with artillery shells.
And the way to return from the moon to the earth is to jump from the moon and fall on the moon.
It can be seen from the movie that scientists at that time believed that the moon was like a cloud in the "sky" of the earth, which is similar to the traditional Chinese "moon palace".
2. Fantastic conjectures about the lunar environment.
At that time, the film was released in 1902 and 1969, when Armstrong first stepped on the moon on behalf of human beings, it was a full 67 years.
And what exactly does the moon have in the eyes of the director in 1902?
This is also the conjecture of all mankind at that time. Is there any life feature on the moon? What's on the moon?
And the director made infinite conjectures, not only people on the moon, but also their own centralized state.
It's like Columbus set foot on a new continent, discovering various civilizations on the moon. That's what the director thought at the time.
