Madagascar 3 Sweeps

Enter for a chance to win a wild family getaway to San Diego!

A lot of famed silent comedians -- among them Charles Chaplin, Roscoe "Fatty" Arbuckle and Harry Langdon -- worked for Mack Sennett before breaking out on their own and achieving superstardom. One actor who left Sennett and came back was Ford Sterling, a solid funnyman who just missed having the talent and charisma of his more high profile contemporaries. He co-directed this uneven two-reeler with Clarence Badger. A tailor (Sterling) plans an elopement with a woman (Polly Moran) whose husband (Guy Woodward) is an expert marksman. They leave a note for the husband, and their first stop is at a movie theater. In the film they are seeing, a man is killed by an irate husband, and this causes the illicit couple to have second thoughts. They return to the wife's home, but the husband arrives soon after they do, and Sterling hides in a closet. Unfortunately, the marksman decides to do some practicing, and the handiest place to put the target just happens to be the closet door, with amusing results. ~ Janiss Garza, Rovi
