Reno or Bust

1924 · 24 min
7.0 / 10 · TMDB

Bobby Vernon has just been married to Lila Lee, but her parents object and kidnap her to Reno, where, if not rescued, they will be divorced. It probably wouldn't hold up before a judge, but it does produce a fairly funny movie.

🎬 MovieFinder's Take

The film constructs a classic comedic race against time, relying on the absurdity of its kidnapping-for-divorce premise. It explores this ridiculous MacGuffin as an engine for a series of rapid-fire, visually inventive gags true to the silent era.

What lingers after the final reel is the sheer, uncomplicated joy of physical comedy executed with brisk energy. It’s a charming relic that reminds us how little plot was needed when the antics were this spirited. — MovieFinder Editorial

Director: Archie Mayo
