Can No One Stop Them?
boblipton14 June 2021
Evil doers who have an armored car invade an estate, slaughter the inhabitants ad leave with the silverware, I guess. The police are alerted! They travel the road in their clown car, but the evil doers overwhelm them every time in this sprightly comedy from Arthur. Melbourne Cooper.

It's cynically humorous, and quite funny, with its "pirate motor" swallowing cops easily. Cooper seems to have had a specialty in making trick films, oing early animation for his own company and under contract for Robert Paul. He left the industry in 1913 and lived to be.87, dying in 1961.
