4 from Edison
Scarecrow Pump, The (1904)
*** (out of 4)
A farmer turns his water pump into a scarecrow. Runs just over a minute but the final gag is quite funny.
Nervy Nat Kisses the Bride (1904)
** 1/2 (out of 4)
The title says it all in this Edison short. The big highlight is the final stunt where Nat gets thrown off a moving train.
How a French Nobleman Got a Wife Through the NY Harold Personal Columns (1904)
** 1/2 (out of 4)
Another Edison short this time has a man placing a personal add only to be chased through the street by dozens of women. Not too many laughs here but you gotta wonder if Keaton saw this when he made Seven Chances nearly twenty years later.
European Rest Cure, The (1904)
** 1/2 (out of 4)
Interesting film from the Edison Studios about a cruise across Europe. Considering it's 1904 there's not any story being told but the film seems to have been made so that Americans could see various popular places overseas. The entire film was shot in the Bronx with sets looking like the other countries.
