Automated Hat-Maker and Sausage-Grinder
Directed by Alice Guy-Blaché
Produced by Société L. Gaumont et compagnie
A whimsical, absurdist silent comedy that delights in the surreal spectacle of a machine producing incongruous objects with anarchic energy.
A machine churns out sausages on one side and spits out hats on the other. The director of this film is not credited in any contemporary catalogues or trade publications, or attributed to anyone by scholars or primary sources, however Alice Guy-Blaché is the most probable candidate.
