Pranks

1909 · 5 min

A featherlight silent-era romp of mistaken clothing and flustered embarrassment, over almost before it begins.

Overview: Tom and Ethel separately decide to go bathing in a river. Pranksters switch their clothes and they each have to dress up as the opposite sex.
How it feels: Light, whimsical and absurd. Brisk and fine in the background.
About: Identity, gender, deception
Content: Mild sexual content. No violence, gore or swearing.
Note: Written by AI, so it can be wrong. Full breakdown
