The accidental drunk


Max Takes Tonics (1911)

Directed by and staring Max Linder this is an early short film. Max drinks down a big glass thinking it's medicine but instead it's alcohol and he gets into some mix ups.

There is nothing really remarkable about this short although it does have a couple of decent moments of slapstick. The plot is serviceable but nothing to write home about. Generally this is an average early comedy.

3/5
