L'Île de Calypso : Ulysse et le Géant Polyphème est un film de Georges Méliès sorti en 1905 au début du cinéma muet.

Synopsis

Ulysse approche de la grotte du cyclope Polyphème. Fatigué, il s’endort devant. Des nymphes musiciennes sortent alors de la grotte, jouent de la musique et jettent des fleurs sur le héros endormi. Calypso arrive, le réveille, alors que les jeunes filles s’éclipsent. Elle l’attire devant la grotte, puis disparaît, laissant la place à la main du cyclope qui essaie d’attraper Ulysse. Le géant sort ensuite sa tête et le héros lui transperce son seul œil avec une lance. Ulysse part alors, Calypso tente en vain de le retenir et pleure au milieu de ses amies.

A traveler, complete with riding boots and a pith helmet, arrives in a small hotel room. When he puts his luggage on the bed, it disappears immediately. Further magical confusions follow: when he sets down his helmet, it jumps to the floor and moves of its own accord before disappearing in its turn; when the traveler tries to light a candle, it jumps across the room and explodes; when he takes off his coat, it flies through the wall; when he tries to sit down, his chair changes place. Finally managing to sit down, the traveler takes off his boots, which walk away; when the traveler moves to the night table, it too disappears. The traveler prepares for bed and takes off his trousers, which fly through the ceiling. When he jumps into bed, it too disappears and reappears. The perplexed and irritated traveler gives up and dashes out of the room.
