It is not only a funny movie, but it allows a great amount of joy for anyone who watches it.

The plot isn't so bad, but the pace of storytelling is too slow which makes people bored. Certain moments are so obvious and unnecessary for the main plot. I would've fast-forwarded those moments if it was an online streaming. The ending looks like implying a sequel, not sure if this movie will get one

This film is so real. It treats its characters with so much care and sensitivity.

If you're interested in the topic at hand, you should just watch it and judge yourself because the reviews have gone very biased by people that didn't even watch it and just hate (or love) the creator. I liked it, it was well written, narrated, and directed and it was about a topic that interests me.

This short film was part of a DVD set called "Reel Baseball" and it consists of many silent baseball films. This review is based on Disc 2--a rather enjoyable collection of surprisingly good films from Kino.In 1906, most films were only 2-5 minutes long, though this one is a bit longer. The Kino folks indicate on the disc that this film is a fragment, but most of it seems intact and the print is of surprising good quality. My score of 7 is based more on how the film compares to other films of the era, as it's really unfair to compare it to newer and more cinematic films.The film begins with a little guy dancing about the office and talking about how he's going to the ball game today. Moments later, when the boss arrives, this office boy gives the guy a song and dance about having a family member who's dying (or died). Then, moments later, the scene switches to a telephone pole outside the baseball stadium where this liar is watching the game with a telescope and somehow managing NOT to electrocute himself. It's obvious the very ending is missing, but it didn't seem to matter all that much. Overall, it's a cute little historical curio. Not a lot of depth, but for 1906, who needs depth anyway?!
