Harold Lloyd's last silent film is gag-driven with little in the way of plot or characterization. He's a working class fellow who can't keep a job. He takes his girl to Coney Island where they play games, ride rides and win a bunch of useless junk. Back in the city, Harold tries to save his girlfriend's grandfather's horse-driven streetcar business. There is a long chase through the streets of New York, where I noticed some back-projection sneaking into Lloyd's stunts.
