Crossing the Great Sagrada

A silent satire with hints of Monty Python.

Parody 1924 10 mins Silent

Overview

Travel films were all the rage in the 1920s, and this short comedy pokes fun at the self-importance of the intrepid explorers who led the expeditions to exotic climes. The film is a slice of silent silliness, composed of a mish-mash of out-takes, home movie footage and jokey titles.
