Leo McCarey: Big Red Ridin' Hood (1925). Jimmy Jump (Charley Chase) uses every opportunity to read "Little Red Riding Hood", even during a car chase. My screenshot from YouTube.

Serge Bromberg (GCM): "Jimmy Jump, a professional translator, is commissioned to do a Swedish version of “Little Red Riding Hood”. Having no money to buy the book, he thinks up a thousand tricks to read the story without spending a cent. A delectable 2-reeler from the team of Leo McCarey and Charley Chase, the forgotten greats of the Roach Studio." – Serge Bromberg (GCM)

AA: * One of my favourites at the Festival. Charley Chase in great form. Very nice, made just before his very greatest films.
