Bess is busy reading a book when her folks come in and command her to spend more time at work. They give her a ball of yarn, a crochet needle and set her to work. She is left alone and while moving around in her chair she loses track of the ball of yarn. It happens to have been caught in her belt at her back and out of her own view. Being a girl of quick temper and strong in athletics, the home is in so much of a turmoil when her parents return that Bess has not been subjected to work since. (Moving Picture World)

🎬 MovieFinder's Take

The film constructs its comedy on the clash between imposed duty and a spirited, restless nature. It relies on physical expression and a minimalist setting, turning a search for a yarn ball into a delightful burlesque of domestic chaos.

What lingers after viewing is the charm of this silent, expressive rebellion against monotony, where the protagonist's energy turns the house upside down in the most entertaining way. — MovieFinder Editorial
