Géant et nain (1896)
A giant and a dwarf are about to box but the giant has a hard time catching the little fellow who keeps going in between the giant's legs. There were actually a few different films like this made back in the day and for the most part they were all rather entertaining. I'm sure this was an act that was done on vaudeville and the Lumiere Brothers decided to put it on film. I actually enjoyed the act here as the two have pretty good timing with one another and I thought it led to some nice entertainment. The basic joke is that the little man keeps going between the big guy's legs but it still works.
