Шаблон:Short description Шаблон:Use dmy dates Шаблон:Use New Zealand English Шаблон:Infobox film Dummy Mace is a 1901 New Zealand silent short film.[1][2]

Plot

The film shows three rounds of a staged boxing match, with a third round knockout.[1]

Cast

  • Tommy Macgregor - featherweight boxer (champion in New Zealand)
  • Harry "Dummy" Mace - middleweight boxer (champion in Australia)[3]

Production

Alf Linley offered Franklyn Barrett finance to produce a boxing picture.[1] Barrett organised two boxers to stage a three one minute round boxing match on the back lawn of the Hotel Cecil.[1] Although Macgregor was to give a knockout blow on cue in the third round, Mace who was deaf, had misunderstood the arrangement and actually knocked out Macgregor.[1]

The resultant film did very good business when subsequently shown in the Federal Hall theatre in Manners Street Wellington.[1][4]

Preservation status

This 1901 film was New Zealand's first boxing film and is now a lost film.
