Jack Cooper was an English actor from the 1910s to the 1940s who worked in the U.S. and was featured in Hal Roach and Mack Sennett movies in the 1920s), Madeline Hurlock, Jackie Lucas, Alberta Vaughn, and Cameo the dog. Note that the three-sheet poster for this movie has a great stone litho image of photographer Harry standing in front of an early 1920s camera, taking a family portrait of a husband, wife, child, and dog. Also note that, in an odd twist of fate, Harry Langdon's son, Harry Langdon, Jr., is a world renowned celebrity photographer, and is described on his website as being "a modern day Michelangelo and master craftsman with the camera". One wonders if the younger Langdon got his inspiration for entering his profession from this movie of his father's! NOTE: Click on linked names to see a biography.
