This is another Georges Méliès short film from 1901, silent and in black-and-white which is not a given as he has already worked with color at that point. And just like this step back, it's a pretty weak work of the French silent film legend. There is no magic involved like in many of his other films, it's basically just him using a pair of bellows to blow up a head (his own head actually) until it becomes really big. Then, in the end, he lets it shrink back to normal size again until with the "help" of an apprentice, finally a mishap happens. The whole thing takes place at a laboratory and runs for almost 3 minutes. I found this one fairly disappointing. Méliès has many superior films, some of which were done quite a while earlier than 1901.
