Midsummer Night’s Dream, A
- Synopsis
- Fiction film. Ball (op cit) writes (p.168). ‘All the camera work was done out of doors, and the scenery is lovely and charmingly rustic. Remarkably for its period, the photography is technically advanced, it uses iris outs, dissolves for vanishings, and double exposures...I wish I knew more about this curiously refreshing film’.
