Mr. Nobody Holme Buys a Jitney (1916)
** 1/2 (out of 4)
This animated short runs just under two minutes and is pretty much a one joke comedy. Mr. Nobody is in his garage trying to crank start his car but it's froze. Someone then gives him the idea to start a fire under it. I won't spoil what happens next. For the most part this is a decent short that at just two minutes is worth watching, although there's certainly nothing terrific that you're going to see. Everything is leading up to that "one" joke and once that joke happens I think you'll be happy you watched the film. The animation itself is quite simple but it looks good and the lead character was at least fun to watch.
