Overview

Remake of the 1895 comedy by the Lumière Brothers. A similar scene is filmed from a different angle, and a young man has replaced the prankster child. This film was made by Henri Lavesque under the name of Brother Basile-Joseph. All of his production was appropriated by Gaumont by the end of 1897 to be distributed as demonstrations for Georges Demenÿ's 60mm Chronophotographe.
