An excellent Mack Sennett comedy starring Gloria Swanson (as an innocent, but rich heiress) and Wallace Beery (as her guardian trying to get her fortune). Good production values enhance this seriocomic melodrama, whose amorous intrigues lead to a climactic rescue sequence (with Gloria tied to the railroad tracks).
