As scene as pleasing as incomprehensible. A juggler summons two chairs, which come to the stage jumping and twirling around. Across the back of these chairs the operator places a sheet of glass on which he lays a box about four inches high. He then takes a table cover, with his servant's help, rolls it up and from the centre emerges a lady, beautifully dressed. At the juggler's order she jumps in the box, in which she completely disappears. (imdb)

It's still kidnapping if you use a magic box, Georges! Although, in this case he and his assistant are excused as they are also disappeared. Or was that their getaway?

Much better than the usual Magic trick short from Méliès, mainly because he keeps it short and simple.

This is *almost* another dull Melies magic-trick short. However, the ending makes you smile
