CORRECTION: Okay, it turns out Max Linder is much more remembered than I thought he was. Not only is he featured, albeit briefly, in many of the texts I didn't initially find him in, but he is even mentioned in the 2009 film Inglorious Bastards directed by Quinten Tarantino. The reason I thought he wasn't in many film history books were:
A) I had a lot less of them, and
B) He is usually featured much later, sometimes even after Chaplin and Silent Hollywood because many textbooks follow an order of "early film–Hollywood–everything else" in their chaptering.
I am thrilled to be wrong about this because I love Linder's work, and the more people who know about him the better.

This week we cover one of the amazing forgotten pioneers of comedy film: Max Linder. All of the movie clips you hear are from Maude Linder's 1983 documentary The Man in the Silk Hat.
