I must say I have never been a big fan of Mabel's - lose interest pretty quickly in anything I've attempted to watch, but I really enjoyed this one and mainly due to the impressive camera work and the fact that unless they could employ camera tricks, it would appear she's doing her own stunts! The scene where she and Ralph Graves are fleeing in that horse drawn cart (basically) was unbelievable - for both of them frankly. I know in those days actors' lives weren't as highly valued (read: insured) as they came to be but this was something. Kudos to her.
