Clara and the Gambler

Overview

A send up of silent screen westerns, this wacky comedy takes place in a room above the saloon where Clara is packing for her honeymoon. A stranger interrupts to tell her he has won her in a poker game. They fight and might fall for each other, but not before they realize they are victims of an inventive scam. An optional third character can add a silent screen era touch by flipping through title cards complimenting the action.
