For those who know CHAPLIN, KEATON, FATTY ARBUCKLE, early LAUREL and HARDY, it would be a shame if you did not give the insane silent comedies of BEN TURPIN a chance. In " A Small Town Idol " he is his brilliant self. You will laugh yourself silly. I HAVE ONE QUESTION!!! How is it that no one knows about this comedic genius or how did he fall out of public grace? Very sad as his name should be whispered in the company of Chaplin's and Keaton's!
