Eye of the Moon: Méliès, Magic, and Colonial Spectacle | Code Flix Season 3 Episode 1

Strap in for a warp‑speed voyage through the birth of cinematic science fiction: André Bonner peels back the layers of Georges Méliès' A Trip to the Moon, from the iconic bullet in the Moon’s eye to the mushroom‑filled caverns and explosive selenites.

Equal parts wonder and critique, this episode turns the film into a story of conquest, spectacle, and imagination—asking who we celebrate as heroes and what the camera reveals about power. You're not gonna want to miss this one.
