Un idiot qui se croit Max LinderFirst of all, this film is part of the short lived ""Ga?tan""-, and not of the ""Max""-series, yet it's, as the title indicates, all about the appearance, shape and silhouette of Max Linder. When the main character, just released from an insane asylum, decides to ""become"" Max Linder, he uses some promotional photographs to introduce himself to the production company and eventually to real life director Rom?o Bosetti. Bizarrely, those pictures show neither Jules Vial, who plays the impostor in this film, nor Max Linder, but Andr? S?chan, who, around the same time, aspires to become yet another Max ""doppelganger"" in the film 'Comment il manqua son marriage'. On top of that, in the final scene in the bureau of Bosetti, hangs a poster of the yet unreleased Max Linder film ""Le Sosie""(/Max's double), in which Max plays a dual role, thus imitating himself. For me this is a fascinating, although probably not very realistic, glance behind the scenes of the film industry of 100 years ago.1914Romeo Bosetti, Lucien NonguetShort, Comedy5.7 (31 votes)020211228
