"Love and Rubbish" is pretty typical for a Keystone comedy of 1913 (the year before Chaplin came to work for the studio). It seems to only have a broad outline as a script and the film depended more on people acting goofy than actually being a funny film. But on the positive side, it relies less on broad slapstick (punching, kicking and wildly shooting guns) than many of these comedies.
Ford Sterling stars as a guy whose job it is to keep the park clean. His rival is another guy with the same job and both spend much of the film trying to catch a woman. Later, they think a kid was stuck in a barrel and they go to rescue them.
Not too many jokes in this one. But also pretty typical of a Keystone film from the era. Not bad but definitely a film only for silent fanatics, like me.
