Three Acrobats (1899)
The title pretty much tells you all you need to know about this one minute Edison film. Two men and a woman are on a sound stage where they come in and out of various trap doors and trick doors. That's pretty much all that happens throughout the minute running time and it's mildly charming but there's certainly nothing special here to where people need to track this down and view it. If you're a fan of early cinema then it will be of interest to you but others should probably just stay clear. The act itself is fine but there's no just comedy to be had, although I'm sure children back in the day probably ate this up.
