Hulda's Lovers

1908 · 5 min Comedy
1.5 / 10 · TMDB

Hulda is a maiden fair to look upon. Her artless rustic simplicity, rivaling Hebe's gorgeous radiance, phlogisticates the susceptible hearts of the village swains. But alas, Hulda was a fickle maid, and seemed to have as many phases as the moon, with a smile for all and a frown for none. Her capriciousness was the cause of much unrest, both for herself and her lovers, for when her parents had departed for a visit, leaving her in charge of the kitchen, she received most effusively Jocular Jake, the village cut-up, only to hide him above stairs at the entrance of Previous-Hearted Pat, the hostler, who in turn is hidden in the Dutch oven at the approach of Handy Hank, the chore boy.

🎬 MovieFinder's Take

The film constructs a classic farcical scenario around the contrast between the heroine's innocent appearance and her risky maneuvers. It relies on the confined space of the house as a stage for escalating chaos, where each new suitor is a step toward a comedic explosion.

Those who tire of modern complexity will find a brisk, innocent vaudeville played with silent-era gusto. What lingers after the final scramble is the charm of a bygone theatrical gag. — MovieFinder Editorial

Director: Wallace McCutcheon Sr.
