Max Linder Made Pathe’ Filma

Max Linder (1883-1925) būvēts Pathé "kinostudiju jau 1900. Linder’s comedy influenced Charles Chaplin, Harold Lloyd un Buster Keaton. Linder is largely unknown today because his biggest film successes were in the 1910s. Most of his films are considered lost.

Filmu fani šodien ir labā resursu, piemēram, interneta arhīvs, which has a number of public domain films. Visvairāk, if not all of Linder’s films, fall into this category. I viewed seven of Linder’s films through the archive. I would recommend the following films to discover Linder’s genius for yourself.

Linder filmas ir noteikti zvaigžņu transportlīdzekļi – films highlighting the abilities of the starring actor. Linder uses slapstick bits to highlight his physical abilities.

Little vixens (Petite Rosse, 1909)is the story of Max attempting to win the heart of a young lady. She tells him she will only marry him if he learns how to juggle. Tas ir salīdzinoši īss at 6 ar pusi minūtes garš. It is also the earliest starring role I can find for him.

Farm māja Romance (Idylle A La Ferme, 1912)sees Max’s uncle telling Max he is tired of Max’s lazy habits. He tells him to marry a local farmer’s daughter or be kicked out. Max negribīgi iet courting un nodarbojas ar scheming māsām. Šī filma ir nedaudz zem 9 protokols.

Max un viņa māte-in-likums (Max et sa belle-vairāk, 1914) concerns Max trying to get rid of his mother-in-law. She will not leave him alone and travels with Max and his wife on their honeymoon to the Swiss Alps. Tā ir garākā filma pie 24 minūtes, vai arī tā.

Linder bija svarīgs divu iemeslu dēļ. Pirmais, viņš aizsāka slapstick komēdija kustību. Slapstick comedy centers on the comedian falling, getting struck by blows and other objects as well as other mildly violent acts for the purpose of getting a laugh. Bez iepriekš minētajiem dalībniekiem, Trīs Stooges un pat Lucille Ball parādā iztiku ar Linder agrīno centieniem.

Otrais, Linder raksturs Max bija populārākā filma raksturs pirms Pirmā pasaules kara Francijā. His popularity resulted in Pathe’ films becoming one of the largest film companies in the world. Līdz Louis Feuillade sāka vēršot filmas par Gaumont Pictures, Pathe "bija vienīgā pasaules mēroga franču filmu kompānija.

Šodien, Linder ir diezgan daudz aizmirsta. Charles Chaplin, who patterned his character after Max Linder’s alter ego, ir daudz populārāka. Chaplin pat veltīta filmu Linder pēc viņa pāragrā nāve no pašnāvību 41 gadu vecumam 1925.
