This early Big Boy Williams starring picture was made super cheap . There are very few set changes although through editing , the director tries to convince otherwise . In reality , the plot matches the sets .
There are so many implausibilities in the script that you have to wonder if the little shavers back then didn't catch the. The biggest culprit was how Lew Meehan was going to pass himself off as Dan Carson ( Big Boy )to fool Lafe McKee when the town was so close with the sheriff and the lawyer so close .
Big Boy performs admirably in his stunts . His good nature and smile are without question his greatest assets . It is a shame he never got better material in silent or sound . Yet , the fact remains , he was second role or a character player .
Still, with so little of his silent material existing , it is worth a look to see his character being defined as this early stage of his career .
