L'Auberge du bon repos, sold in the United States as The Inn Where No Man Rests and in Britain as The Inn of "Good Rest",[1] is a 1903 French silent comic trick film by Georges Méliès.
Set in an inn, the film addresses the state of the drunken mind with light heartedness.
The Moon and a manic chase, as featured in the film, are both common motifs in Méliès's work.
The table and pendulum are animated using stage machinery; other objects are pulled or suspended using wire, and additional effects are worked using substitution splices.
[2] The Inn Where No Man Rests was sold by Méliès's Star Film Company and is numbered 465–469 in its catalogues.
