Today I present to you a very short short, not even five minutes long.
Eventually, I will be telling you more about Alice Guy-Blaché, the world's first female film director, who has been said to make this film (which can be true or not, I'm going to stay out of that discussion).

The title of "The Race for the Sausage" from 1907 is very fitting.
A dog steals a long sausage chain and chaos ensues when more and more people are racing after him to get the sausage.
If you have five minutes, take a look and just have a bit of laugh with this early chase comedy.
The best script, the best protagonist, the toughest sausage, and the funniest recording... ever.
ReplyDeleteWell put! 🤣
DeleteYou weren’t kidding about being short! I have seen that one before! I’ll have to google the director.

Those were the good old times when movies didn't have to be 2 1/2 hours long!
DeleteGuy's story is a fascinating but also sad one, like so often with those early pioneers.
