The Bride's Relations (1929)
This one reel all-talking comedy shows all the weaknesses and strengths that we can expect from the screamies. When a man falls into a mud-hole, it isn't so funny any more, and when we have to hear bad gags too it is terrible. On the other hand, there is a snoring scene, with three men in a double bed, that is a roar. Eddie Gribbon is funny in this. Harry Langdon isn't. Let's be nice and call this a pioneering experiment.
