Should Men Walk Home?(1927)

movie - first aired/released 1927-01-29 - 27 min - audience 7.1

Comedy, Crime

Directed by Leo McCarey

Mabel plays an out-and-out crook, a Girl Bandit, no less. And she quickly hooks up with a male partner in crime, in this case a Gentleman Crook played by perpetually grinning Creighton Hale. Mabel seems a little livelier in this film than in some of her other late works. In the very first scene we find her hitch-hiking, and she's forced to make a mad dash for cover when Hale's car nearly hits her. Soon they team up and crash a swanky party in a mansion to steal a jewel from the host's safe.
