They Crammed A Lot Of Gags Into This One
26 November 2021
Walter Catlett learns his son Ben Alexander has thrown over fiancee Joyce Compton for acrobat Nora Lane. He takes lawyer Arthur Housman to the road house where she is performing to lay down the law.

Mack Sennett seems to have regained his footing in 1933, what with the Bing Crosby shorts and one or two classics with W. C. Fields. This one is filled with gags, from contortionist Betty DeVier to an Irish butler named Pierre and is very amusing.

It wouldn't last. The declining market for independent short producers, the entry of the majors into the market, and the movement to double features rather than 'selected short subjects' would drive them all out of work.
