From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Slippery Jim (Pickpock ne craint pas les entraves) is a 1909 French silent comedy film by Segundo de Chomón, produced by Pathe-Freres. The film heavily utilizes stop-motion to aide in its visual comedy, alongside the visual comedy of the actors.

Use of Stop-Motion

[edit]
This scene shows the police officers hiding behind a door to surprise the pickpocket, and when the pickpocket opens the door, it flattens the two officers. This displays the stop-motion used heavily in the film to serve its comedic nature.
