Featured review
No Lamb Chops
There are sheep frisking about, then W.H. Roche -- he's the guy who owns the sheep ranch, I guess -- shows off his skill in lassoing the beasts. Then we see them shorn, and they go leaping off.
It's a split-reel actuality from Keystone, something they did occasionally in the early days, when, I would imagine, Sennett hopes to issue all sorts of movies. Sometimes the Keystone cameramen took the performers to an event and they did their shticks in front of the events; that's how we got comedies like KID AUTO RACES AT VENICE. Sometimes they cut the comics performing their shticks into footage they had already shot; there's a Ford Sterling comedy which had footage from a local alligator farm edited into it; and sometimes, as here, they just edited it into a straight movie and used it to fill out a reel, like they did here.
