That's Where My Money Goes
Marcel Perez is so poor he can't even tip the janitor for some service or other. However, a messenger arrives with a telegram from a notary. An uncle is dead and has left Marcel a hundred thousand francs! With a huzzah and skips and falls and smashing of his old junk, Marcel is off to equip himself in the latest and most expensive fashion, waving the telegram like Mark Twain's Million-Pound Note to gain the instant obsequiousness of tailors, haberdasher and hatters. But wait, why is that messenger following on Marcel's trail? Could it be another telegram? What could it possibly say?
The fun in this short that Perez made while rejoicing in the screen name of Robinet -- he would have to give it up when he left the studio; they owned it -- is his extreme and comic reactions, his awkward and absurd poses. Although there are other comics on the screen, this one is Marcel's performance; the others are just there to react.
