The Music Box (1932)

Rating: 71 

This is a reprint (with minor changes) of an earlier review I wrote (and published elsewhere) on February 07, 2005. 

 This short film features two guys trying to move a piano up a flight of stairs. The development is simple but funny, and there is a kind of surreal feel about the whole thing. It is like "The Myth of Sisyphus" done as comedy. Also, there is a lovely musical act.
