Popis:	Segundo de Chomon is the Spanish film-maker from the silent era with a wider international dimension. But the study about him needs a permanent reformulation. First of all, due to the shortage of data about the specific moves in his career in the framework of cinema in its early years. Secondly, due to the harmful nature of some cliches told about him (‘pioneer of Spanish cinema’, ‘the Spanish Melies’). This paper offers a starting point for a revision of Chomon’s work, from theoretical considerations and particular films, including Le Vie et passion de N.S. Jesus Christ, Le fils du diable, Le courant electrique or Symphonie bizarre.
