About The Madness of Dr. Tube
A wacky scientist develops a powder that he believes will have the effect of distorting reality for those who take it. To test its effect, he tries it out on his boy assistant, his pets, his nieces, and their beaus. But, chaos ensues as his nieces don't find their appearances as funny as the rest, so Doctor Tube tries to find a way to make things right.
Directed by Abel Gance, The Madness of Dr. Tube leans on a strong ensemble — Albert Dieudonné, Le Clown Di-go-mo — to carry a story that balances spectacle with character.
The film landed with audiences for its craft and performances, and remains one of the most talked-about science fiction titles of 1915.
