Four strangers (a verbose romantic, a human lie detector, an expert pickpocket, and a woman with a preternaturally precise sense of time) are brought together by chance when they inadvertently team up to thwart a bank robbery. Recognizing the potential of their combined talents, they decide to form a bank-robbing gang themselves, just for the fun and romance of it. Their heists are played out swiftly and coolly, less like robberies than performance art. Eventually, the foursome's good-natured crime streak is interrupted when a man from one of their pasts creates a whirlwind of extortion and double crossing.

Together, they form a band in hopes of entering the upcoming music competition.

George Mélies made a version of this a few years later, often titled Une Indigestion, but Guy-Blaché’s earlier film Chirurgie Fin de Siecle (1900) is more widely available. And it’s not one to watch the night before an operation. In this clinic, a sign pleads “On est prie de ne pas crier/Please do not cry”, and the doctors set about the patient with saws, cheerily hacking off limbs, and then slopping them into a bucket, all the while arguing ferociously with each other. They then reattach arms and legs from a bucket of “exchange pieces” (using glue) before re-animating their victim, I mean patient, with bellows.

It’s been a good couple of days for Victor Campillo fans! Between this new Ace vid and the Marseille edit we posted yesterday it feels like he’s put out two parts worth of footage. Apparently all the shit he got at La Plaine was filmed in a week too – pretty mad considering the state of some of those marathon lines… Something should also be said about how shocking Ibu’s spring is in this thing. Like by now we’re kind of used to seeing him dwarf spots, but look closely at how little he had to prepare / bend down for that blunt by République?! He made that thing look like a curb. Loved Noah‘s footage too. You can tell more and more care is going into picking what tricks are getting done where (the nollie 180 to sw feeble into the bank was extra satisfying) and he’s got that kind of natural board control that makes everything look super fun and playful (sort of like this guy).
