The Extraordinary Child (1954)
The Extraordinary Child (1954) - Comedy Movies 13 minutes. . The Extraordinary Child applies his developing style to broad slapstick. His friends from the previous films and the director himself play out a riotous farce about an overgrown baby who steals his father’s cigars. Everyone mugs hilariously. The movie could be taken as another example of the Romantic notion of the artist as a monstrous child or misfit, or a parody of the same rather than the personal confessional statement seen so often in these film movements. card game, mischievous child, adult as a child, short film
