| Description: | THE POCKET BOXERS Early trick film - Miniature boxers fight on a Pub table. 2 men sit facing each other at a table in a bar/tavern/pub; with glasses of dark beer on table. One man reads something from newspaper; they seem to get into an argument; and make a bet. They each lay their money on the table; set the glasses on the floor; reach into their jackets and take out miniature men. They place these tiny guys on the table and cheer them on in a boxing match. One of the boxers knocks out the other and the guy with the winning boxer wins the wager; collects the money; and tucks his boxer back into his jacket. The other man brushes his poor boxer off the table. A handshake again; then they reach for their drinks. | |
