Zigoto and the Affair of the Necklace
The film begins with the Count giving an actress a necklace. However, after her performance, the valuable necklace is missing and so the actress goes to hire some detectives to find it. I loved the strange detective agency in the film. The place had a sliding door, chains on the wall and detectives seem to magically appear out of the floor. It was very kooky but fun.

🎬 MovieFinder's Take
The film constructs a comedic mystery around a missing necklace, relying on the visual gags and playful absurdity of early cinema. It explores the contrast between the theatrical world and the bizarre detective agency with its sliding doors and detectives emerging from the floor.
What lingers after viewing is the delightful eccentricity of the investigation and the charming, almost magical, silliness of the agency's operations. A short, cheerful diversion into pure visual fun. — MovieFinder Editorial
