Fatty's Spooning Days 1915

Also known as “Mabel, Fatty, and the Law,” this sheer delight of a short features the two protagonists as a married couple. After a fight caused by his flirtation with the maid, Fatty and Mabel walk through the park. In typically convoluted Keystone fashion, they are mixed up with another couple. The cops become involved when they believe that the “No Spooning” law has been violated, resulting in Mabel and the other woman’s husband in the clink. An amusing statement on morality in the early 1900s.
