A film about the making of a film set in 1910. Some big names star in this slapstick comedy that pays some homage to the silent and indeed dangerous visual comedy of Harold Lloyd. Although it cannot replicate the charm and vivacity of the earlier, original works that have inspired it, it is nevertheless an interesting period piece on the 'behind-the-scenes' of movie making in that era. In the end, the characters go to Hollywood to see the groundbreaking film BIRTH OF A NATION.

Simple comedy
Didn`t quite give the storyline what it deserved. Could have been more punchy with the comedy. Could have done with less Harold Lloyd slapstick.(Don`t get me ... read more »
