    Laughter has been pouring from the screen ever since. Though at not quite the pace of early Sennett. Thank you Mack!

    Gosh, I love Mabel, and Roscoe–and Mack was not a bad actor, himself. Never cared for that Chaplin fellow or understood how/why he became the big “it” of silent comedy–he just rolls off my knife.
