The Magnetized Man
(1907)
Directed by Louis
Feuillade this is a short film from the silent era. After an
attempted mugging a man commissions a suit of armour but two young
boys play a prank by getting the armour magnetized.
This is a pretty
simple story built around one joke that while not especially funny at
least works. I found the film entertaining if not deep. The direction
and acting are all passable, the special effects for the gag work
fine as well.
3/5
