Portrait of Max Linder

Max Linder

Bio: Although all too frequently neglected by fans of silent comedy, Max Linder is in many ways as important a figure as Charles Chaplin, Buster Keaton, or Harold Lloyd, not least because he predated (and influenced) them all by several years, and was largely responsible for the creation of the classic style of silent slapstick comedy. He started out as an actor in the French theatre, but after making his screen debut in 1905 he quickly became an enormously famous and successful film comedian on both sides of the Atlantic, thanks to his character "Max", a top-hatted dandy
Born: Sun, Dec 16 1883
Birthplace: Cavernes, Saint-Loubès, Gironde, France

Death: Sun, Nov 01 1925
