The Stumbling Block

1911 · 7 min

A gentle, slight early silent comedy that ambles by, charming through its dog antics rather than any real story.

Directed by
Laurence Trimble
Overview
A man is rejected by a woman, and then decides to have her dog stolen. The dog is very approachable, and although he at first wants nothing to do with the man, they ultimately become good friends. Finally, he gives the dog back to the woman.
