Stars and directed by Harold Lloyd. (brother Gaylord Lloyd was assistant director, just to keep it all in the family.) Regular guy Harold Hall wants to get into showbiz, and when there's a mixup in the photos, he is on his way to a screen-test. It's a harold lloyd comedy, so there are mixups, falls, smashups, and unspoken gags all along the way. Unlike Lloyd, Constance Cummings had just broken into hollywood, so this is one of her earlier roles as "Mary". Many old-timey actors in uncredited roles as "dinner guest" listed in the cast list. The broken glass door gag and some of the other bits got a bit annoying, but over-all, it's quite good. Fun to see Lloyd at the top of his game... he had done silents for YEARS, but came out of favor, and didn't make so many talkies. Just for laughs, in the cast list, Arthur Housman is listed as "customer who didn't order rabbit".
