Fun silent film, some degradation of the media
It was certainly funny to see Will Rogers with ponytail and pumps! No real divergence from the Washington Irving story, although I don't remember the tar and feathers. And the characters ring true to the story- even Will Rogers'. Most of the film is pretty clear, but toward the very end the dark scenes have become mostly black, so most details are missing. I didn't find that the mediocre film quality got in the way of the story at all. Overall, not great but pretty amusing.
