France, 1890. Inventor Louis Le Prince vanishes under mysterious circumstances right after he created a device that, five years later, the Lumière Brothers will call The Cinematographer. What if they had stolen Le Prince’s idea and wacked him afterwards? The mystery remains for more than a century, until Luigi Cozzi picks up a strange book called “The Roaming Universe” in the horror museum of his pal Dario Argento. The origin of this enigmatic book troubles him. This particular science-fiction novel would have materialized during a spiritual session in modern day Rome. At the session, an old woman revealed that the key to all these mysteries comes from 1895, a time during which the Lumière Brothers had denied lending their camera to Georges Méliès for an obscure movie called "A Trip to the moon". Not only does this film actually exist, but it raises a more intriguing question. Is our world the only one, or are there parallel universes ?

A look back at the life, style and influences of the famed filmmaker Georges Méliès and an examination of his role in the story of "Hugo."

In addition to revolutionizing animation, Walt Disney soon realized that music could become a key element in the success of his films. Thus, from "Snow White and the 7 Dwarfs" in 1938, he gave a central place to the songs before calling on his songwriters from pop to write original melodies in "Mary Poppins" in 1964. Since then, Disney Studios have worked with many singers, from Louis Prima to "The Book of the Jungle" in Anais Delva for "The Snow Queen" by Céline Dion for "Beauty and the Beast". The paper recounts Walt Disney's musical universe and history, with testimonies from artists such as Gwen Stefani, Jenifer, Melody Gardot or Ne-Yo.
