Wissenswertes
The most famous scene of this film originated by accident. In the filming of a chase scene down a steep slope, Buster Keaton inadvertently dislodged some rocks which tumbled after him as if in pursuit, and he had to scramble to dodge them. At a preview showing, Keaton saw that that accident got the biggest laughs in the film. Thus inspired, he decided to reshoot the scene with over 100 papier-mâché "rocks", ranging from pebbles to six-foot boulders, so his character would have to deal with a massive avalanche in the scene.

Patzer
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.

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

Running Never Was So Funny

Jimmie Shannon (Buster Keaton) is a broker in need of money. When a lawyer comes to tell him he has inherited a certain sum, Jimmie avoids him thinking he may be bringing a summons. And then when he does hear the good news, there's a catch...

Directed by and starring Buster Keaton, this film portrays his particular brand of physical comedy, though perhaps not with as much danger as "The General" or as many tricks as "Sherlock Jr." The music of Robert Israel really carries this film. Not just because it's a silent film, but because it's great music -- moving, light and comedic. And there is an implied racial tone... Jimmie passes on proposing to both a Jew and a black woman.

I literally "laughed out loud" at this film! It is a shame Keaton considered it his worst film. Who knew it was so hard to get someone to marry you for $7,000,000 (in 1925 money, no less)?
