Explosive

 

Mary Jane's Mishap (1903)


Directed by George Albert Smith this is an early short film staring Laura Bayley. A young woman has a mishap with shoe polish and then another with paraffin.


There is an impressive amount of acting in this short, something unseen in a lot of films of the period. I really liked the personality captured here. A fun short with an explosive ending!


3/5
