The Grab Bag Bride

1917 · 10 min Comedy
6.0 / 10 · TMDB

A knock-off of those charming rustic comedies in which Roscoe and Mabel Normand would play young lovers. Lake is a pretty good stand-in for Mabel, but the husky young man who is supposed to be Arbuckle is pretty much of a nullity. Al is a money-hungry villain, up to no good and achieving no good end.

🎬 MovieFinder's Take

The film constructs a straightforward rural comedy, relying on the familiar dynamic of young love thwarted by a greedy villain. It explores this well-trodden path without surprises, offering a harmless, if unremarkable, diversion.

What lingers after the final reel is the pleasant, forgettable charm of a simple formula executed without great ambition. A quaint piece of early cinema comfort food. — MovieFinder Editorial

Director: Ferris Hartman
