A Soldier's Unlucky Salutation (1896)


Directed by George Melies this is an early short film. A soldier sitting on one end of a bench stands up causing the bench to tip up.


A very simple comedy short based around a familiar gag. The quality of these shorts that survive as flip books is not amazing. Fine for the period I suppose.


2/5
