Playing the Swell

1926 · 21 min Comedy

Forsaken and broke, Wanda figures out a way to get money. She puts sunglasses on a sleeping homeless person in the park, cuts a hole in the bottom of the derby she's holding, then hides under the bench and picks up the coins dropped by passersby who take pity on the "blind man." She is approached by a handsome young man whom she tries to impress.

🎬 MovieFinder's Take

Playing the Swell is an acquired taste at 0.0/10. We recommend checking the trailer and synopsis before diving in.

Not every film is made for everyone. Read the synopsis, watch the trailer — you'll know right away if it's for you.

A classic from 1926. They don't make them like this anymore — which is exactly why you should watch it. Best for: genre fans and those open to something unconventional.
