The Good Shepherdess and the Evil Princess [1] ( French: La Bonne Bergère et la Mauvaise Princesse) is a 1908 French short silent film credited to Georges Méliès. It was sold by Méliès's Star Film Company and is numbered 1429–1441 in its catalogues. [2]
A Centre national de la cinématographie guide to Méliès's films, analyzing the film's style, concludes that it was probably directed not by Méliès but by an employee of his, an actor-director known as Manuel. Special effects in the film are worked by stage machinery, pyrotechnics, substitution splices, and dissolves. [3] The film was shot partly in one of Méliès's glass studios in Montreuil-sous-Bois, and partly outdoors, in the garden of Méliès's family property next to the studios. [2]
Only an incomplete print of the film is known to exist; the rest is presumed lost. [2]
