Hole in the Wall

1919 · 13 min Comedy
5.5 / 10 · TMDB

The Trombone family is very musically inclined, but their neighbours, the painter Pierre van Hall and his wife, are being driven crazy. This turns into a fight between the neighbours that gets way out of hand, because their reactions to each other become increasingly extreme; at one point a brass band is even used. The police ultimately force the quarrelling neighbours to make peace, by threatening them with jail.

🎬 MovieFinder's Take

The film constructs a classic comedic escalation, relying on visual gags and the absurd inflation of a petty neighborly dispute into total war. It explores the primal humor of retaliation and overreaction with silent-era physicality.

What lingers after the chaotic finale is the sheer joy of orchestrated silliness and a satire of forced civility. — MovieFinder Editorial

Best Watched

Watch with a light heart as a prime example of silent slapstick timing.
