1/10
Better than the original
21 February 2014
The second film of the three shot by W.K.L. Dickson and William Heise for the Edison Laboratories, again featuring G. Sacco Albanese. Here he is shown stretching and failing his arms in exaggerated movement, so that they new invention would be able to pick me up better. You can also see Albanese take off his hat towards the end.

There is a slight improvement upon the first Monkeyshines, but of course the quality is still very poor. Again not much of a film, but of important value to the history of film.

Again, it rates as a 2 out of 10, with its historical significance being its only redeeming quality.
