Special Delivery

1927
Comedy
The second and last of Eddie Cantor's silent vehicles, Special Delivery casts the wide-eyed comedian as a hapless mailman. While going through his swiftly appointed rounds, Eddie stumbles upon a gang of crooks who are planning a large-scale confidence scam. He exposes the villains and wins the love of heroine Madge (Jobyna Ralston). Though Cantor was a fine physical comic, he didn't truly score in films until the arrival of talkies allowed his fans to hear as well as see him.

Special Delivery is not the most fantastic comedy ever made, but it is funny! Cantor was always more versatile in sound films, but the guy knows pantomime and can talk just as loud with his skinny body in silents as he could with his singing voice in sound pictures! The movie doesn't waste much time. Always a gag going on, a lot of it reminiscent of what the top comics of the time was going. Not always the best material, but most of it worked a laugh making it an hour well spent.
