The review
An American goes abroad for his health. Each country in the reel mistreats him. He comes home worse. Porter, Edison, 1904. A house can watch it. The joke depends on cartoon versions of other peoples. That drawing has to be said, not giggled past.
I had no patience left for a tour whose humor is nationality. The rest cure fails on purpose. What it spends is a cartoon of other countries, and he is worse at the end. I won't invent the stops. The fact is the mistreatment and the trip home. Not a travel picture I want quoted at our table.

The glance
Industry and Household and Piety and Courage and Republic and Temperance and Truth and Stewardship are the thin ones.
Does anyone here do a real job, and does that job matter?
This phone is set for a grown person, just me. Change the ages.
Consider this
Scooby-Doo
30 instead of 18
Scooby-Doo is still a comedy film, and it scores 30 instead of 18. What you gain is courage: They do go into the dark.
The eight
- 2Industry
He goes abroad for his health, not for a wage, and comes home worse.
- 2Household
Home is where he lands worse, not a marriage or a child on screen.
- 1Piety
No conscience checks a joke built from cartoon versions of countries.
- 2Courage
He is mistreated abroad and comes home worse; that is not a risk to praise.
- 1Republic
Other peoples are drawn as cartoons, so a neighbor is only a gag.
- 2Temperance
A rest cure becomes a string of mistreatments, and he ends worse.
- 2Truth
The joke needs cartoon versions of other countries, not a true report.
- 2Stewardship
He comes home worse, and the cartoon of other peoples is what remains.
