Beach Nuts

So-so silent comedy in the series Joe Rock produced for Alice Ardell -- she had great charm, but not much comedy ability, so Rock built her up by using a different comedian in each movie. Here's it's the dependable Chester Conklin.

Alice and Chester meet on the beach where they are both dog owners -- and the dogs get the best lines. After being chased by the obligatory cop, they wind up in a hotel lobby, then involved with some bootleggers. Some amusing moments if you're a silent movie nut, but nothing outstanding.
