Histoire

Modifier

For a comedy, I didn't notice a single laugh!

"Rough Idea of Love" is a short starring Marjorie Beebe and is a Mack Sennett production. Now, considering how much I have enjoyed other Beebe-Sennett films, I was shocked by this one, as it was supposed to be a comedy but didn't have a single laugh in the film. In fact, I wonder why they made it in the first place!

Beebe plays a lounge singer who is inexplicably in love with a real jerk. Through much of the film, he treats her abominably...even punching her several times. By the end, they marry...though you really wonder why.

So what's funny about a singer in love with a jerk? I saw nothing fun or funny here...and advise you to try another Beebe film instead.
