Country lad (Harold Lloyd) tries to make fortune in the big, bad city (Los Angeles) and impress girl-friend (Mildred Davis) with how well he’s doing.
Reviewed by Chris Tookey


One of the funniest of all silent comedies, culminating in the amazing sequence where Harold Lloyd climbs a skyscraper and hangs high above the street from the hands of a clock. The rest of the film isn’t bad either.
