    There's A Symmetry To This

    Billy Franey and Lilian Peacock want t get married. Her mother, Gale Henry, foribds it because he has no money. His brother, Heinie Conklin says he'll get the mother to agree; the trouble is, she thinks he's proposing to her.

    There's an element of symmetry to this that is quite pleasing, with Franey and Conklin made up with wig, mustache and clothes to look like each other for. a visual horizontal similarity. Otherwise, it's an ordinary affair.

    Much of it was shot at Newport Beach in California.
