Meat mugging

Stop Thief! (1901)

Directed by James Williamson this short film from the silent era stars Sam Dalton. While carrying a joint of meat a butcher is robbed of by a tramp.

This is a simplistic short film that pretty much is exactly what it says on the tin. There is a bit of action in a chase sequence but there is not a huge amount to go on here. For what it is the film is fairly well made but at just over a minutes run time there is never going to be any depth here.
