What happens

Monsieur et Madame sont pressés è un cortometraggio del 1902 diretto da Ferdinand Zecca. Un uomo e una donna cercano di fare in fretta per uscire di casa. Tuttavia, ogni volta che cercano di vestirsi, i loro abiti si trasformano istantaneamente in un altro capo di abbigliamento, impedendo così loro di uscire di casa. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
