Summary:THE DEVIL'S PLAYGROUND is part of the film retrospective UNSEEN CINEMA that explores long-forgotten American experimental cinema. Released by the Vitagraph Company of America, this short comedy about a larcenous and independently minded prosthesis features a nonsensical narrative that the French surrealists would have appreciated as much as they did the work of Emil Cohl. --JAN-CHRISTOPHER HORAK. 35mm 1.33:1 black and white silent with music 18fps 6:34 minutes. Production: Vitagraph Company of America.
