This one doesn't work very well, even considering its era. The whole film is only there to set up one gag, but it's not even a very good gag, and it's not carried out very well either. You always want to be charitable in evaluating these earliest films, because they did not usually have a lot to work with, and because almost everything they did was new at the time. But "The Other Side of the Hedge" comes across as routine and rather sloppy even by the standards of the era. Most other Hepworth-produced films had much more energy and creativity than this one does.
