ROMANS AND RASCALS (1918) - ♦♦

Directed by - Larry Semon

 

Written by - C. Graham Baker, Larry Semon

 

Starring - Larry Semon

 

 

"Early Semon short comedy where he momentarily ditched his clownish character in favour of a story set in Rome, where a disrought emperor disregarded by Sheeba, his love affair, puts a servant in his place so he can run look for her, and leaves the servant coping with a small insurrection and the advances of Sheeba herself. Like most Semon comedies, this short is too fast paced and complex to fully enjoy."
