The Bangville Police
(1913)
Directed by Henry
Lehrman this film stars Mabel Normand, Nick Cogley, Fred Mace and the
Keystone Cops. A farm girl wishes for a baby calf and upon hearing
strange noises in the barn calls the police.
So this is a pretty
simple early comedy that does not have a huge amount going for it
plot wise. When it comes to the comedy there are the odd moments that
raise a chuckle but for the film that launched the popularity of the
Keystone Cops this is not an overly funny film. Decently made this
film is ultimately not really remarkable.
3/5
