Bocal aux Poissons Rouges | Lumière Bros. | ★★★★
Shown in atypical close-up, the Lumières' masterful short captures numerous goldfish swimming about a large bowl, dashing in and out of its light and shadow against the backdrop of some intriguing reflections, dazzling the viewer’s eye dynamically as they do so.


Annabelle Serpentine Dance | W.K-L. Dickson | ★★★★
Annabelle Moore performs a serpentine dance on a light floor against a dark background, twirling around the screen with her long, flowing dress following her obediently.
