Rigadin, Garçon de Banque (1912)

Overview

Charles Prince shows up with some money from the banque. While the old man continues to play cards with his pals, Rigadin and the young wife go into a room; the husband soon follows and kicks him out. But when he dons a different hat, he isn't recognized. It's a very slight addition to Prince's series as Rigadin, and at times seems a trifle incoherent to modern viewers, most of whom have never seen a formal hat of any description. Instead they will notice the pulled faces and painted backdrops, as Prince tries and fails to make this minor one-reel comedy more interesting. With Suzanne Demay and Armand Lurville.
