A film splicer in which two film sections with their ends overlapping each other are clamped upon a swivel plate at both sides of a U-shaped cutting lever by means of two clamp slides each having a clamping arm which is first pivoted upwardly by one finger and released after being shifted in this lifted position over one film section so as to clamp the latter upon the swivel plate without scraping the film surface. The cutting lever is then pivoted downwardly, but shortly before its cutting blade engages with the film, a resilient depressor lever which is located between the lateral arms of the cutting lever presses tightly upon the overlapping film ends closely adjacent to both lateral sides of the blade. After the cut-off ends of the two film sections are removed, a part of an adhesive tape is applied upon one side of the abutting end portions of the film sections, whereupon the swivel plate with the film sections clamped thereon is pivoted over and the other part of the tape is folded 180 DEG to the other, now upper side of the film end portions and is pressed thereon.
