The Floorwalker
I am now with Mutual
A frenetic silent slapstick comedy built on physical gags, mistaken identity, and anarchic chaos in a department store setting.
An impecunious customer creates chaos in a department store while the manager and his assistant plot to steal the money kept in the establishment's safe.
