Bowery Waltz (1897)
*** (out of 4)
Fun Edison short runs just over thirty-seconds but contains some pretty big laughs. I'm pretty sure the film is meant to be serious as it shows a man taking a woman and the two dancing. Yes, that's all the do but it's hilarious because I'm really not sure what type of dance they're trying to do and it appears the woman is either drunk or terrified of being in front of a camera. The weird dance gets some pretty good laughs even though I doubt it was intended to.
