The Loafer is a 1912 Western film produced by The Essanay Film Manufacturing Company. It tells the story of a lazy scrounger undergoing a forceful reformation.
The Loafer is a rare find in silent film collections, with only a handful of prints available. It originally screened in various theatres, but like many of its contemporaries, it has succumbed to the ravages of time, making existing copies highly prized among collectors. While not widely discussed, its exploration of character flaws set against a Western backdrop offers a unique perspective that appeals to those interested in early genre filmmaking.
