Commentaire à la une
Although painfully GIRL SHY, a tailor's assistant uses every ounce of strength to keep the young woman he adores from an unwise marriage.
Harold Lloyd produces another winning entry in his series of silent screen comedy classics. This time there is a healthy dose of old-fashioned romanticism, as Harold and beautiful Jobyna Ralston yearn & commune alongside a bucolic stream.
Such tenderness never cloys, however, as Lloyd makes sure to leaven it with healthy helpings of hilarity. His attempts to hide a small dog on a passenger train are uproarious, as are his demonstrations on how to make love to vamps & flappers. And when the viewer thinks Harold can't possibly top himself, he ends the film with one of his marvelous chase scenes, in which he uses every sort of conveyance (train, jalopy, horse, fire truck, trolley, motorcycle & sand wagon) to stop Jobyna's marriage to a cad.
Throughout, Harold displays the remarkable athleticism for which he was celebrated, made even more astonishing when one remembers that he had lost half of his right hand a few years before in a freak studio accident, a disfigurement he disguised with a prosthetic glove.
Movie mavens will recognize some OUR GANG kids in uncredited roles--Fat Joe Cobb & Jackie Condon in the tailor's shop and Mickey Daniels as a newsboy on the street.
Jim Parker has composed an excellent film score which perfectly complements Harold's antics on the screen.

Histoire
Le saviez-vous
- AnecdotesMany of the exterior shots were filmed at Holmby House, the massive estate owned by Arthur Letts, owner of Bullock's Department Stores. Harold Lloyd did not move into his Green Acres estate in Beverly Hills until 1929, five years after this movie was released.
- GaffesWhen Mary's car goes off the road and in a close shot she takes out the Cracker Jack box, there is a reflection in the side of the car (bottom left) of a pair of legs standing nearby, then walking away.

- Versions alternativesIn addition to the 'My Vampire' and 'My Flapper' sequences, there was a third interlude involving the girl with the curls, where Harold finds her as a Mary Pickford-type milk maid. The scene does not survive (it was cut after a preview) but a photograph of the scene has appeared in several publications.
