I was amazed at the effortlessness and grace of this "lost and found" Fatty Arbuckle-Buster Keaton comedy. The first reel is particularly hilarious, with Fatty cooking and juggling his utensils, "flipping a flap" onto waiter Buster's plate. A less inhibited Buster also provides a spontaneous, exotic dance. And, as usual, Arbuckle's nephew, Al St. John, heartily contributes to the anarchy.
One get the sense that these three men (along with Luke the dog) had the time of their lives designing such memorable slapstick!
This treat ranks alongside "The Garage" has one of the best Keaton-Arbuckle shorts!
