Fast-moving COLUMBIA comedy short!
21 December 2005
One of 2 Charley Chase shorts directed by comedy veteran Charles Lamont, THE WRONG MISS WRIGHT finds Charley in a dilemma - he finds true love on a boat from China to the US, but has only come back to the States due to an arranged marriage. Diggles, his manservant, persuades Charley to act crazy in order to get out of the arrangement - then he can marry his shipboard romance. Unbeknownst to Charley, his shipboard romance is actually the girl he is supposed to marry! The fun begins when Charley arrives at the home of his arranged intended!! Having never seen the original short, this remake is quite funny. As usual, stock player Bud Jamison stands out in his role as manservant Diggles.
