Also about Méliès: here is an interview online with Brian Selznick, the
author of The Invention of Hugo Cabret, the book that was made into the
recent movie, Hugo. Méliès plays a part in the book and movie, and Méliès
and Le voyage dans la lune are mentioned in this interview.

The interview is in English; it begins at 2:15 into the podcast; which can
be found at "Download" at the top of the page. Discussion of Méliès begins
at 5:20 and the discussion ends at 10:00, with another mention or two before
16:00. The whole interview (20 minutes long) is fascinating, although not
all directly related to Méliès or the movie and book.
