Trivia
Buster Keaton had this project foisted upon him by producer Joseph M. Schenck, who had bought the rights to the hit Broadway show. Keaton later called it his least favorite feature and tried to keep film historian Raymond Rohauer from restoring the only known copy of the movie.

Goofs
Just as the horde of would-be brides overruns the college football game, one of the players can be seen throwing himself to the ground, already pretending to be trampled.

Quotes
Title Card: By the time Jimmie had reached the church, he had proposed to everything in skirts, including a Scotchman.

A very, very funny film!

I'm sorry to hear that Keaton didn't care for this film, because it was a truncated version of this film that introduced me to Buster Keaton when I was about six.

When the film gets going, it really takes off and I mean off the ground. The big chase in this film is a joy to see.

This is a must see Keaton film.
