So, 'Along Came Auntie' from '26 is a curious little comedy that plays with the absurdity of relationships. The premise is pretty amusing: a divorced couple pretending to be happily married just to snag a hefty sum from the aunt who disapproves of the divorce. The pacing feels light and breezy, with a blend of slapstick and witty dialogue that keeps it engaging. Richard Wallace's direction adds a certain charm, and the performances have this delightful, if not exaggerated, quality that really captures the era's comedic style. There's a nice use of practical effects to accentuate the humor, especially in the comedic misunderstandings. It’s a nice snapshot of 1920s comedy, with its themes of deception and familial expectations woven throughout.
Interesting look at post-divorce dynamics.Captures 1920s comedic sensibilities well.Watch for physical comedy elements.
