Becoming Charley Chase

Too Many Mammas (1924)

*** (out of 4)

Another nice entry in Hal Roach's Jimmy Jump series finds him going out to dinner with his boss and his mistress but soon the boss's wife shows up so Jimmy must pretend to be with the mistress. Things get a bit trickier when Jimmy's girlfriend shows up. This is yet another major plus in the series has Charley Chase is in top form delivering one great laugh after another. The entire sequence of the two men trying to juggle three women at the same table is pretty priceless and McCarey's direction is top-notch in pulling this off. Even before this sequence we get another good one where Jimmy walks into the tough bar to check things out and then starts a fight thinking a woman is getting abused but not realizing it was just the dance she was going. The short runs just under 9-minutes but there's really not a wasted moment. Another funny gag includes the "telephone of the future", which allows one to see the person they're talking to.
