Max Linder stars in this satire of 1921's

Max Linder stars in this satire of 1921's The Three Musketeers with Douglas Fairbanks. I wasn't expecting much considering some of Linder's recent work, but there was a lot to enjoy here. The first sequence as he is leaving home is one of my favorites, particularly the sorrowful parting of Dart-in-Again's mule and the family cow. The humor leaned heavily on anachronisms, but it felt well-conceived for what it was: a silly, good natured parody of one of the previous year's most popular films. To answer Eric B's question about the priest and his hair - in the original film Cardinal Richelieu had a priest henchman who did his dirty work, and he was constantly seen stroking a cat. The parody cuts out the cat and has Richie-Loo stroking the bald priest. Initially he has four long hairs. As we watch the chase sequence when the four musketeers are hurrying to get the jewels back for Queen Anne, every time he plucks out one of the hairs one of the musketeers falls. He cannot pluck the last one, however, which represents Dart-in-Again.

This is a surprisingly good farce -- as

This is a surprisingly good farce -- as good as silent comedy gets, outside of the superstars Chaplin, Keaton and Lloyd. Max Linder writes, directs and stars in this "Three Musketeers" parody, peppering it with droll anachronisms (telephones, automobiles, motorcycles) and acrobatic physical gags. The puns are a little awkward, but you have to love the musketeers being named Octopus, Porpoise and Walrus. The costumes and sets are lavish, and the story sticks righteously close to the original book. The only minus is a creepy, repeating image of an old, bald priest having the few hairs on his head tweaked and pulled. What was that supposed to mean?
