Post No Bills (1896)
4/10
Comedy yes, funny not really
12 October 2013
Warning: Spoilers
We see a man with a rifle patrolling. As he gets out of eye sight a prankster appears wit a bucket and puts a poster on the wall the other man is supposed to be protecting. That joke gets stretched further as another man appears and puts an even bigger poster there. When the guardian returns, he doesn't even realize what happens. The pranksters are gone and he seems to overlook the poster. Only until bis colleague or boss appears though and barks at him angrily what exactly has happened. The poor guy seems to have no idea and gets led away from the scene. So, did this sound funny to you? No I didn't think so. It really wasn't. But it was an okay attempt even if Méliès has done a lot better many times.
