Not the Last Time Sennett Would Use the Plot

Dell Henderson pretends to be a foreign Count on using that as an edge, talks the guardians of heiress Mabel Normand into having her marry him.... assuming he can borrow enough money from from the other folks at his boarding house for the honeymoon.

It's a story that's not particularly original to Mack Sennett's comedy unit at Biograph, and it's one that he would carry with him when he left and pass it on -- Chaplin would use the gimmick as the basis of THE COUNT, for example.

At a half reel, there isn't much elaboration, nor was there much in the way of gags for Sennett in this period, not for a half-reel comedy. People look fairly normal, although Mabel does have an amusingly bilious expression on her face at the prospect of the wedding vows.

The Baron review

A decent early comedy from Mack Sennett for Biograph. He was yet to develop the frantic slapstick style for which his shorts would come to be known, and so this is a more restrained comedy about a sacked waiter posing as a Baron in order to wed a society woman. It's hardly groundbreaking stuff, but it's pleasant enough.
