His Wife's Mother is a 1909 comedy short film from the American Mutoscope and Biograph Company. The film features a storyline about a man who tries to outsmart his mother-in-law's rules against smoking and drinking.
This film is quite scarce, with few prints in circulation, making it a curiosity for collectors. Early comedies like this one often don't get the attention they deserve, yet they reveal much about the social mores of the time. Its format history is limited to standard 35mm, but enthusiasts of silent film and early cinema typically have a keen interest in such titles. If you come across a copy, it could certainly pique the interest of those focused on comedy's evolution.
