Casper's Week End

About This Movie

Casper's Week End is a 1928 comedy featuring Toots and Casper who find themselves mistakenly identified as freshmen on a college campus. Directed in the silent film era, this title showcases early comedic storytelling and character dynamics.

Casper's Week End is a bit of a rarity among silent comedies, often overshadowed by more prominent works of the time. Its scarcity in both 16mm and 35mm formats means that collectors keep a sharp eye out for any prints that surface. Interest fluctuates, but there's a niche appreciation for the simplicity and humor it presents, which can be a nice contrast to later sound films. It’s one of those titles that might not pop up often, but when it does, it certainly catches the attention of those who appreciate the silent era's quirks.
