Review: Although this movie was made in 1902, it would appear that a child came up with the screenplay. The story telling system seems to be they did this and then that and then this. The movie is only about 14 minutes long, however the first 4 minutes of the movie seems like it is lasting forever. I guess that is to be expected when the short film length in this time was typically 2 minutes. It is difficult to understand what is being said in the film, especially while the actors are clamoring around in the classroom. For obvious reasons, 1902, the cinematography was less than wonderful. The story in all does not make very much sense, but I guess for a short period of time it keeps you captivated and wondering, what will happen next?
