The Stolen Jools

Crafted as a fundraising benefit for a tuberculosis sanatorium, this multi-studio-star-packed comedy short--which was only rediscovered in the 1990s--followed the struggles of the L.A. cops to track down the pilfered pearls of Norma Shearer (as herself). Appearances include Laurel and Hardy, Gary Cooper, Edward G. Robinson, Barbara Stanwyck, Wallace Beery, Buster Keaton, Joan Crawford, Irene Dunne, Loretta Young, Joe. E. Brown, Fay Wray, and many others. 20 min. Standard; Soundtrack: English.
