Movie Comedy
This film was presumed lost for a long time, until the second reel of this movie showed up again in the '90s. So half of the movie can be seen. It's a fast paced slapstick comedy with also a good comical story about a man (Charley Chase) who is being prosecuted for shooting his wife (Edna Marion).
