Lige Conley stars in "Fast and Furious" (1924), a fast-paced silent comedy. Conley's sidekick in this film, as with several in this series of "Mermaid" comedies Conley made for Educational and Jack White, is African-American character actor Spencer Bell. The chase in reel two lifts a number of gags from Buster Keaton films.

🎬 MovieFinder's Take

The film constructs its humor from the contrast between the protagonist's calm demeanor and the sheer chaos unfolding around him. It relies on visual inventiveness and precise timing, freely borrowing and reworking gags from the masters of silent comedy.

What lingers after viewing is a sense of pure, kinetic joy and admiration for an era where comedy was a physical art form. The breakneck pace becomes a metaphor for relentless fun. — MovieFinder Editorial

Director: Norman Taurog
