Title Card: THE MANICURE LADY - Proving That Faint Heart Never Won Fair Lady
Recensione in evidenza
A pretty complete little comedy considering that it's only 11 minutes long.
This comedy is a bit unusual because in his earliest directorial assignments for Biograph Studios, Mack Sennett not only was behind the camera but starred in the short films. Now at first sight you might not think this is Sennett, as he bore a rather strong similarity in look to the very famous French comic, Max Linder. I don't know if Sennett cultivated this look on purpose or if it was just chance.
Sennett works as a barber and he's obviously in love with the manicurist. The problem is that lots of men coming to the salon really like her and one rich guy in particular pursues her. Eventually, Sennett has had enough of watching the two of them and springs into action--leading to a pretty amazing moving shot for 1911. Not a brilliant comedy but unlike many of the day, it tells a complete story and is MUCH more plot-driven than usual and has none of the usual bonking and slapping. Worth your time.
