Joseph Hart

Comatose comes up with a brilliant idea to start a business based on the success of Uber. But the only problem is that he doesn't have the manpower or technology to do so.

Foxy Grandpa and Polly was a comic strip upon which husband and wife team Joseph Hart and Carrie DeMar based a musical for the stage. Here, they enter from our left, hand in hand, a sylvan backdrop behind them. They're in fancy dress: he in three-piece suit and tie, bowler hat in hand; she in frilly floor-length dress, hat, and long braid of hair behind. They do a carefully choreographed dance - he's comic with large nose and male-pattern baldness splitting white curly hair; she's festive and smiling. They stay in sync. The camera is stationary, and it's one take.

Second film in the "Foxy Grandpa" series, based on the comic strip of the same name by Carl E. Schultze (drawing under the name of “Bunny”). In this film, a tramp attempts to fight with Foxy Grandpa, who returns his blows and chases him away.

The "Foxy Grandpa" is a series of eight short staged films illustrating scenes and incidents from William A. Brady's musical production ‘Foxy Grandpa’ which, in turn, was based on Carl E. "Bunny" Schultze's comic strip of the same name. This picture, the first in the series, shows the artist and the actors from the musical being introduced to the audience. They are cartoonist Carl E. Schultze (“Bunny"); Joseph Hart, who plays "Foxy Grandpa"; Carrie DeMar, who appears as "Polly"; and the two child actors who portray the mischievous boys, “Chub" and “Bunt.” This film is currently lost.

The boys dance to Grandpa's banjo playing, then indicate that he can't equal their skill. Grandpa gets up and performs an intricate step while still playing the banjo.
