Featured review

Passable silent 2 reeler.

Interesting to see a younger Horton, before his dithering character had crystalized. This one is a short produced by Harold Lloyd whose HOT WATER the mother in law character and open top bus scenes recall.

Horton's plans for a fishing holiday with fetching wife Thompson are undermined when her mother and bratty kid brother show up - predictable falling in the water gags follow.

The piece is well enough paced but the gags are too familiar. Occasional amusement from items like a title about the boat where all the holes are in the bottom where people won't see them.
