The Mystery of the Leaping Fish

The Mystery of the Leaping Fish

by John Emerson0h051659United States

A proposition by FPA Classics

Browning et Fairbanks ont souvent regretté d’avoir produit ce film. Et pourtant, restauré par Lobster Films, il est aujourd’hui l’un de ces bijoux d’absurde et de délire, mené à un rythme endiablé, et où rien ne semble impossible. Alors prenez votre souffle, et embarquez avec celui qui, quelques années plus tard, sera le voleur de Bagdad, Zorro, D’Artagnan, Robin des Bois.. Bref, le premier, le seul vrai aventurier de l’histoire d'un cinéma muet : Douglas Fairbanks.

The film"s page

Coke Ennyday, the scientific detective, divides his own time in periods for "Sleep", "Eat", "Dope" and "Drink". In fact he's used to overcome every situation with drugs: consuming it to increase his energies or injecting it in his opponents to KO them. To help the police he discovers a contraband of opium (which he eagerly tastes) transported with "Leaping Fishes", and the blackmail of a mysterious man who wants to marry the "fish blower" girl. Will Coke be able to free the girl ?
