Featured review
If You've Two Beaux to Ev'ry String
May Wallace is going broke. Her only hope is that senile beau Tom Ricketts will propose. When he comes around to do so, she is out and butler Harry Langdon must dress in drag to take her place. Meanwhile, another old beau shows up....
After the failure of his independent feature production company, Harry found himself working for Roach and, while he maintains his slow, befuddled comedy timing, there is a definite change in character -- the last time he performed in drag it had been the interminable THE CHASER. Here, still slow to react when pushed around, he begins to develop a new screen character for the sound stage, still using his classic gag of fighting with and losing to inanimate objects -- here, a couple of boxing gloves that have gotten themselves attached to a tree branch.
Although Langdon's association with the Roach studios as star performer did not last long, he did form a good working bond with his director, Charlie Rogers, with whom he would reteam as co-stars of some good PRC comedy features a dozen years later. Also noteworthy is the teaming of Fred Guiol, who would eventually wind up working for George Stevens for the next twenty-five years -- but here Guiol contributes as an uncredited co-director while Stevens is still the cameraman.
