Harold Lloyd’s first talkie was originally filmed as a silent feature, only to be largely reshot to capitalize on the nascent sound technology. Here, the ever hapless everyman plays Harold Bledsoe, a timid botany student who, due to his late father’s position as San Francisco police chief, is called in to help investigate a growing crime wave in the city’s Chinatown, leading him on a wild slapstick goose chase to catch a shadowy crime boss.
