En vadrouille

This film has three Our Gang connections besides the fact that Hal Roach is the producer and Charley Chase was the supervising director/general when that series started. First, there's Rosina Lawrence-her first film appearance in a Roach film after stumbling at other studios-who would soon become Spanky, Alfalfa's, etc. new teacher. Here, she also displays her singing and dancing talents as well as her beauty. Second, there's Clarence Wilson-who previously appeared in Shrimps for a Day and Little Sinner and would eventually make his final film appearance in Come Back, Miss Phipps-as someone Chase gets in trouble with. And thirdly, there's Harold Law who'd been writing gags for the series about this time and would eventually get co-writing credit, with Robert McGowan though not the famed director of the OG series but his same-named nephew, on the M-G-M-only entries as Hal Law. He's co-director here with Chase, credited as Charles Parrott. Anyway, this was a funny foray concerning a trip that goes wrong. Like I said, there's also a nice song-and-dance here with Ms. Lawrence and Chase in the middle of this. Oh, and watch out for a cameo of a couple of famous comics...
