The Night Before Christmas (1905).
The Night Before Christmas is a 1905 American silent short film directed by Edwin S. Porter for the Edison Manufacturing Company .[1] It closely follows Clement Clarke Moore 's 1823 poem Twas the Night Before Christmas , and was the first film production of the poem.[2] [3]
Plot summary [ edit ]
Scenes are introduced using lines of the poem.[2] Santa Claus , played by Harry Eytinge , is shown feeding real reindeer [4] and finishes his work in the workshop. Meanwhile, the children of a city household hang their stockings and go to bed, but unable to sleep they engage in a pillow fight . Santa Claus leaves his home on a sleigh with his reindeer. He enters the children's house through the chimney and leaves the presents. The children come down the stairs and enjoy their Christmas presents.
Production [ edit ]
1,670 ft of film was shot, with 798 ft used.[2] A panoramic shot of Santa Claus riding his sleigh over hills and the moon was shot using miniatures and a painted backdrop.[1] The film is available on the Kino DVD A Christmas Past .[3] [4]
