Delightful Max Linder


I really enjoyed Max Linder in this movie, and hope that TCM will show more of his films. He certainly was a wonderfully adept comedian and a true delight. Such a shame how he and his wife killed themselves, in their suicide pact, just a few years later.

I didn't know that he and his wife killed themselves. How sad.

Anyway, I saw this for the first time, last year, and I loved it. I thought that he was good in it. I rate this movie 20/20 and it's in my top 70.
