Former vaudevillian and amateur filmmaker Sid Laverents wrote, directed and starred in Multiple SIDosis, a short film that features a dozen split-screens of him playing a variety of musical instruments simultaneously. Each of Laverents's musicians displays a different character with its own costume and hairstyle as they unite to perform the song "Nola," a novelty ragtime number popularized in the 1920s. Coupling his own ingratiating persona, painstaking in-camera multiple exposures and complex overdubbing, Laverents created a film that may be amateur but not amateurish.
Multiple SIDosis was added to the National Film Registry in 2000.
