8/10

A classic comedy

This is a rare example of a silent Japanese slapstick film that has survived to this day, and is one of the most lauded films directed by Torajiro Saito, who was famous for his comedies. Known as the 'god of slapstick comedy,' this is a work that details exactly why he was given this title. The influence of Charlie Chaplin is evident in this Shochiku "Kamata nonsense" film,showcasing Saito's outstanding sense of humor. The benshi performance, sprinkled with puns is part of the film's attraction. Kodakara Sodo excellently depicts the struggle of an unemployed husband comically chasing after a reward attached to a pig who he must capture.
