A surprisingly well-crafted film for Keystone, although Mabel seems to be pushing for some changes e.g. The Naughty Normand, the tease of the beach changing room. The picture showcases Mabel’s talents, but the hand gestures she learned from D.W. Griffith are still much in evidence, but will fade away over time. It is notable that Mabel’s ‘Pickford curls’ are pinned up on her head, which is exactly how Mabel liked them. Roscoe performs well here, and the Roscoe/Mabel team went on to make great and funny films, although some viewers will find them little silly. Timeless comedy.
I think its the "silliness" of the old films what i find so endearing. Nothing crude or vulgar, just entertaining for a little while before we return to the real world which is too often crude and vulgar.
@@hislittlemrs.9235 Nothing is more delightful than the 'Fatty and Mabels', regardless of the fact that many think they are unartistic junk. Such films were the bread and butter of Mack Sennett, made him a wealthy man, and his audience very happy!
What they laughed at 110 years ago. Timeless slapstick comedy from two people who were comedy giants in their day but are now largely forgotten. Both lives would be marred with bad luck, scandal and tragically cut short.
Roscoe and Mabel were a natural comedy team.
I wish Chris Farley would have played fatty artbuckle that would have been great
Well, he did steal Fatty's act
That would have been great. Jack Black could do a great biopic I'm sure.
john candy was considered also before he past away

@@hislittlemrs.9235 And yet, the contemporary reviews characterized this film as vulgar, and not proper for the best theaters!
Normand and Arbuckle had great chemistry!
As Arbuckle's wife (Minta Durfee) said "They blended well."
Mabel is adorable.
Great duo

Did Mabel really climb down the rope? That would have been crazy.

Mabel is my woman...
