Over cooked

An Over-Incubated Baby (1901)

directed by Walter R. Booth this is a short silent film. A woman puts her baby in a machine that should age it by one year but the machine goes haywire.

Taking a simple plot this one minute film is not the deepest film you will ever see but manages to fill out it's run time. There is basically one gag but enough action to hold your attention. Unlike a lot of the early films there is not a lot of trick photography.


3/5
