I will never forgive these girls who laughed at his book
I love that in most old silent comedy movies they are always running so much, like A LOT. I need more of that nowadays

The romance was unbearably cute omg. The bridge scene!! I <3 Harold Lloyd + Jobyna Ralston together.

Final act went on far too long in my opinion.
