Malcolm St. Clair was a master director of sophisticated silent comedy. This book traces his career, from his start as a Mack Sennett Keystone Kop, through the action-adventures of the early 1920s, his work with Buster Keaton, the grand and elegant sophisticated comedies for Paramount in the '20s (Are Parents People?, The Grand Duchess and the Waiter, Gentlemen Prefer Blondes, and The Canary Murder Case), his transition to sound films, and the comedies for 20th Century-Fox. Includes a 16 page photo insert.
