Truly Dreadful Film
Thanks for the memories!
I wanted to like it more than I actually did... But much of the humor totally escaped me and I walked out only mildly impressed.
This is a small, humorous movie in some ways, but it has a huge heart. What a nice experience.
"Komisches Reck" is a German silent short film that runs for under one minute and had its 120th anniversary this year. It is among the earliest German movies of all time actually and the Skladanowskys were the German (far less popular) response to Georges Méliès and other French filmmaking pioneers. It is part of a collection named Wintergartenprogramm, which is really short as well and basically a summary of Skladanowsky's early works. But back to this one here: We see two acrobats. They show us a couple tricks, nothing too spectacular and in the end there is a little slapstick to explain the "Komisches" in the title. However, it is not really funny enough to watch it more than once, Still, thumbs up for Skladanowsky on being part of the early days of film.
