Levi and McGinnes Running for Office
(1914) United States of America
B&W : Two reels
Directed by Sidney M. Golden (Sidney M. Goldin)

Cast: John McCabe [Levi]

Independent Moving Pictures Company, Incorporated [IMP] production; distributed by The Universal Film Manufacturing Company, Incorporated. / Produced by Carl Laemmle. / Released 13 November 1914. / Standard 35mm spherical 1.33:1 format.

Comedy.

Reviews: [The Moving Picture World, 15 November 1914, page ?] A low comedy subject in two reels, suitable principally for exhibition in houses catering to a sporting clientele. The tone of the production is not of an elevating sort, as it consists of race rioting between the Irish and the Jews. Some of the characterizations were genuinely amusing, and could well have been employed in developing a plot more worth while. The production drags some in places, but it is not without a certain humorous appeal.

Survival status: (unknown)
