The Vim Comedy Company was a short lived movie studio in Jacksonville, Florida and New York. Vim bought out Siegmund Lubin's Lubin Manufacturing Company Jacksonville, Florida facilities in 1915 after that company went bankrupt. It was founded by Louis Burstein and Mark Dintenfass.[1] Vim specialized in two-reel comedies, producing hundreds of them in the short time it existed. Notable Vim actors were Oliver Hardy, Ethel Marie Burton, Walter Stull, Billy Ruge, Rosemary Thebe, Billy Bletcher and his wife Arline Roberts, and Kate Price. At its peak Vim had a workforce of nearly 50 people. The Vim Comedy Company went out of business in 1917 after Oliver Hardy discovered that both Burstein and Dintenfass were stealing from the payroll.[2] Vim was bought out by the King Bee studio started by Burstein.
