Misplaced Pages

Cheese Mites, or Lilliputians in a London Restaurant is a 1901 British short silent trick film, directed by Walter R. Booth. A gentleman is entertained by the little people who emerge from the cheese at his table.

Reception

Michael Brooke of BFI Screenonline wrote that Booth "combined the jump-cut with superimposition, so that the miniature people (shot on an exaggeratedly large table-top set) appear on screen alongside the normal-sized diner. Thankfully, he seems to find the sight more amusing than alarming."

Release

This film is included in the BFI DVD compilation R.W. Paul: The Collected Films 1895–1908.
