Bébé fait du spiritisme is a curious blend of comedy and the supernatural, directed by Louis Feuillade. The film captures a somewhat chaotic atmosphere as Bébé's mother and her friends delve into spiritualism, illustrating the era's fascination with the occult. The pacing is brisk, leading to moments of genuine panic as they sense an evil presence, which is quite amusing given the absurdity of the situations. The practical effects, though simple, add a layer of charm, especially in how they depict the unseen forces at play. Performances are lively and contribute to the film's whimsical tone. It's this mix of lightheartedness and eerie undertones that makes it a distinctive piece in silent cinema, a snapshot of early 20th-century societal interests.
