OUR GANG (The predecessors to The Little Rascals)
BIG BUSINESS (1924)
Super 8 Black White
In BIG BUSINESS the kids are managing their own barber shop, with harrowing results. No one gets hurt, but most of the customers wind up bald or close to it-- one kid even gets a prematurely fashionable Mohawk! Scenes involving close calls with sharp scissors might make some viewers wince, while the manicurist uses a device that looks like a wire-cutter. Ouch! The basic plot involves a sissified rich kid in a Little Lord Fauntleroy outfit who breaks away from his repressive mother, gets his hated ringlets shorn off in the kids' barber shop, and proves he's a regular guy by triumphing in a fistfight. Freckle-faced Mickey Daniels is a strange choice to play the rich kid, as he just doesn't look the part-- his "sissy" outfit looks like a Halloween costume, not his normal apparel --but it hardly matters, as the story is secondary to the procession of gags in the barber shop.
This film is in perfect condition. With all my films there is no reserve and I go through each film to check for problems.
