Hitting the ceiling

 

On the Roof (1897)


Directed by Georges Melies this is an early short film. Two robbers throw a woman off the roof then get chased by an officer of the law.


I thought I had already seen this one, it must have been a knock off or a film that this one is a knock off of that I had seen before. The slapstick comedy is fine, nothing special. Comedy is not my favourite genre for Melies to tackle.


3/5
