        Forgotten Sweeties was a funny Charley Chase short I watched on the "American Slapstick" DVD

        This Charley Chase short comedy from Hal Roach was the last of the films I watched on the "American Slapstick" DVD collection. In the one, Chase lives across on the same apartment floor as his old sweetheart but they just found out about that and their spouses are none too thrilled about it! By the way, Anita Garvin-known to me usually as a Laurel and Hardy foil-plays Chase's wife. I'll just stop there and just say how consistently funny most of the short is especially near the end when Charley paints faces on his feet! (Watch it if you're curious to what I'm referring to.) The director was James Parrott, Chase's brother. So on that note, I highly recommend Forgotten Sweeties.
