This is a cute short from Edwin S. Porter that brings to life Shakespeare's "Seven Ages of Man" monologue from his play "As You Like It". Presented are seven different scenes of romance, starting with two toddlers kissing to an elderly couple together. Oddly, a homely spinster and her cat are thrown in at the end, following the title card "What Age?".
It is charming to watch the young children and elderly couples interact. Some believe that the film is of one couple throughout their lifetimes. I think that it is seven different couples put together, if only because of the randomness of the lonely lady thrown in at the end. She seems to be there for comedic effect because she pets her cat with a wistful smile without a hint of bitterness.
Overall I give it 4 out of 10 stars.
