Carole Lombard is given star billing these days but has only a small part in this Mack Sennett comedy which takes place in a girls school in which the pupils are staging their version of Carmen. Enjoyable enough short with pint-size Daphne Pollard providing most of the laughs.

Carmen by a sorority
bkoganbing23 June 2019
Part of Carole Lombard's apprenticeship in film came with Mack Sennett who
featured her in several shorts. She's here and recognizable, but the real star
of this short subject film is Daphne Pollard. She and Lombard are sorority
sisters and the sorority is putting on a production of Carmen.
Pollard of course is the lead and all the parts are played by women including the bull the Toreador is supposed to slay. That doesn't quite work out.
It still is pretty funny and those who like drag and especially drag king productions ought to check this out.
