Should Men Walk Home?

1927 · 27 min Comedy Crime
7.0 / 10 · TMDB

Mabel plays an out-and-out crook, a "Girl Bandit," no less. And she quickly hooks up with a male partner in crime, in this case a Gentleman Crook played by perpetually grinning Creighton Hale. Mabel seems a little livelier in this film than in some of her other late works. In the very first scene we find her hitch-hiking, and she's forced to make a mad dash for cover when Hale's car nearly hits her. Soon they team up and crash a swanky party in a mansion to steal a jewel from the host's safe.

🎬 MovieFinder's Take

The film constructs a lively partnership between the contrasting characters of a spirited girl bandit and a grinning gentleman crook. It relies on classic silent-era visual gags and chases to build a lighthearted criminal caper.

Those who tire of overly complex plots will enjoy this straightforward, energetic comedy of errors at a swanky mansion party. What lingers after the final reel is the charm of a simpler cinematic time. — MovieFinder Editorial

Director: Leo McCarey
