The Actor and the Rube is a 1915 American silent short film produced by the Thanhouser Company under the Falstaff brand. Written by Philip Lonergan and directed by Arthur Ellery, this was the first Falstaff release. The production was supervised by Edwin Thanhouser and produced at the New Rochelle studios. The plot of the film is about a cranky farmer, who, disliked by his entire town, decides to head to New York. An actor disguises himself as the farmer and returns to the farmer's village and makes him popular. After his work is done, the actor tells the farmer to return home and the farmer finds he is well-liked and marries his love interest. The one reel comedy production saw a wide United States release and was also released in the United Kingdom under an alternate title, The Actor and the Bumpkin. Reviews were positive and focused on good acting and originality in the execution of a plot, with the New York Clipper finding it a welcome relief from the "pie-smashing" antics of other comedies.

Synopsis

Hi Jenkins is a cranky farmer who is dislike by the whole village, including the spinster whom Jenkins wants to marry. Jenkins takes big losses while playing poker and heads to New York to forget his problems. In New York, an actor takes an interest in impersonating Jenkins and an "accidental meeting" is arranged. The actor studies Jenkins and goes back to the cranky farmer's hometown and becomes popular with the people. The actor also wins at poker and regains the spinster's interest. The actor returns and informs Jenkins to be silent and all will be well when he returns home. Jenkins returns and finds himself to be well-liked, marries his spinster love interest and is no longer cranky.

Le synopsis officiel du film est répertorié dans le magazine Reel Life : « Sparks apprend, lors d'une visite chez sa fiancée, Bianca, étudiante en art, que son ami, Tom Brown, écrivain, habite en face de chez elle. Il voit bientôt que Bianca et Brown se plaisent et décide de faire une blague à son ami qui le ferait douter de sa santé mentale. Il persuade Bianca de jouer une scène avec lui, dans laquelle elle se fait agresser par un homme avec un pistolet près d'une fenêtre aux rideaux tirés. Pour se défendre, elle sort une dague de sa poitrine et tue son agresseur. Voyant ce spectacle en ombres chinoises à travers les rideaux, Brown se précipite pour aider Bianca. Il la trouve en train de lire paisiblement et elle lui dit que cet incident n'est autre qu'une hallucination. Quelques jours plus tard, Bianca se fait vraiment agresser par un cambrioleur. Brown, qui sait maintenant que son hallucination n'était qu'un mauvais tour de Sparks, pense qu'il s'agit d'une nouvelle blague de son ami. Il va tout de même vérifier et arrive juste à temps pour sauver la fille, qui rompt avec Sparks pour se marier avec Brown.
