Max Linder Made Pathe’ Filem

Max Linder (1883-1925) dibina Filem Studio Pathe 'pada awal tahun 1900. Linder’s comedy influenced Charles Chaplin, Harold Lloyd dan Buster Keaton. Linder is largely unknown today because his biggest film successes were in the 1910s. Most of his films are considered lost.

Peminat filem hari ini mendapat manfaat daripada sumber-sumber seperti Internet Archive, which has a number of public domain films. Kebanyakan, 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.

Filem Linder adalah kenderaan pasti bintang – films highlighting the abilities of the starring actor. Linder uses slapstick bits to highlight his physical abilities.

The Vixens Little (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. Ia adalah agak singkat di 6 setengah minit. It is also the earliest starring role I can find for him.

A Romantik Farm-rumah (Idylle di 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 berat hati pergi memikat dan memperkatakan beradik perancangan. Filem ini adalah sedikit di bawah 9 minit.

Max dan Ibu-In-hukumNya (Max et sa belle-lebih, 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. Ia adalah filem yang paling lama di 24 minit atau lebih.

Linder adalah penting kerana dua sebab. Pertama, beliau mempelopori gerakan komedi dagelan. 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. Selain pelakon yang disenaraikan di atas, Tiga tali barut dan juga Lucille Ball berhutang kehidupan mereka kepada usaha-usaha awal Linder ini.

Kedua, Watak Linder ini Max adalah watak filem yang paling popular di pra-Perang Dunia I Perancis. His popularity resulted in Pathe’ films becoming one of the largest film companies in the world. Sehingga Louis Feuillade mula mengarah filem untuk Gaumont Gambar, Pathe 'adalah satu-satunya syarikat filem Perancis di seluruh dunia.

Hari ini, Linder adalah cukup banyak lupa. Charles Chaplin, who patterned his character after Max Linder’s alter ego, adalah lebih popular. Chaplin walaupun berdedikasi filem untuk Linder selepas kematian sebelum waktunya dari berani mati di 41 tahun di 1925.
