No Lady

No Lady is a curious British comedy. Lupino Lane shows almost Chaplinesque skills but as a director he certainly could not make this film flow well.

Lupino plays a hen pecked second husband of a harridan and her children, one of whom looks suspiciously looks like a vertically challenged young man.

Thet go off to Blackpool for a holiday. We see scenes of the Pier, the Lido and Lupino gets mistaken for some kind of crook. Once the bad guys realise their error, they go after him but Lupino disguises himself as a woman to escape everyone but attracts the attention of a lot of elderly suitors.

The film is mainly a silent, it has some knockaround fun, you even get a song and dance number. It is rather silly, it showcases Lupino in an uneven way but I cannot say this is a good film.
