Should Tall Men Marry? is a curious blend of Western and comedy that really leans into the goofy charm of the late 1920s. Louis J. Gasnier’s direction gives it a light-hearted pace, with plenty of pratfalls and misunderstandings. The performances by Jimmy and Stan are wonderfully bumbling—almost like a precursor to later comic duos. The film captures that particular era's vibe, where the bad guy is as over-the-top as the hero is endearingly clueless. The outdoor sets and practical effects are a reminder of simpler filmmaking days, and Martha Sleeper adds a unique flair as the strong-willed daughter. It’s a bit of a time capsule, reflecting societal norms around marriage and gender roles, all while keeping the laughs rolling.
