Luke Joins the Navy (1916) - Short Film
The beginning of the film you find Harold Lloyd playing his "Lonesome Luke" character. Out of the blue, Lloyd decides he's going to join the navy and you really wonder if part of the film leading to it is missing. After all, the decision seemed to come from no where and why Snub Pollard would also join is unclear. And, oddly, they seem to skip all training and are stationed on a navy ship. (imdb)

Luke's Movie Muddle (1916) - Short Film
MOVIE MUDDLE begins showing Luke as the owner of a movie theater that shows Pathé (the company that produced this short) films. He does everything--sells tickets, takes tickets, shows people to their seats. His only partners are the piano player and the bumbling projectionist, played by the great Snub Pollard. When a girl enters (Bebe Daniels), Luke's flirting gets the best of him. The film gets jammed, and via a smoking (literally) patron, the audience rushes out thinking there's a fire. (imdb)

The Dippy Dentist (1920) - Short Film
The film begins with a girl who is supposedly irresistible to all men. Several guys all come to her to pledge their undying love--including Harold Lloyd's brother, Gaylord. Shortly after this, a new dentist (Snub Pollard) arrives to work in an office across the hall. In a very funny scene, Pollard manages to steal all of Gaylord's patients from his waiting room. However, when it comes to dental work, Snub is highly unlikely to receive the American Dental Association's seal of approval. (imdb)

Scorching Sands (1923) - Short Film
"Scorching Sands" is clearly not a P.C. Wren spoof. It was released a year before the novel "Beau Geste" was published and three years before the movie with Ronald Colman was produced. Instead, it's an overt parody of Ouida's "Under Two Flags." This novel had already been filmed several times by the time Stan Laurel spoofed it and audiences would have had no trouble recognizing the source of his parody. Here Laurel finds himself torn between a society lady and a sweetheart of the Legion. (imdb)

Run 'Em Ragged (1920) - Short Film
Run 'Em Ragged, Snub Pollard's 39th starring vehicle, uses familiar Mack Sennett slapstick--over-the-top make-up, ethnic humor, and a Keystone Cops-style chase across Los Angeles's Echo Park. But there is more here than knockabout. Sophisticated sight gags test the limits of the characters' perception, making expert use of such props as a seemingly bottomless rowboat.
