Looking back at the 1925 milestone that is The Klynick, the specific unique vision of this work is a gateway to a broader Short world. Our archive is rich with titles that mirror the unique vision of Mark Goldaine.
As Mark Goldaine's most celebrated work, it defines to create a dialogue between the viewer and the unique vision.
Mickey, convalescing in a hospital from a tummy ache brought on by an over-fondness for green apples, is visited by his pals who, after much roughhousing, enable him to escape. They get together and start a hospital of their own which they operate with indifferent success until a live victim turns up. They "go to work" on him until he escapes and gets into a fireworks manufacturing plant where he drinks a glass of nitroglycerin, immediately after which he is seized with a fit of sneezing which proves a combustible commodity as everything in sight goes up in a blaze. He goes back to the "hospital" and the "staff," using a stomach pump, succeeds in drawing off the explosive but it drops and scatters the gang.
