Actor

Став сценаристом и режиссером фильмов с Молли в главной роли, он делает из нее звезду... Сюжет замешан на биографии Макка Сеннетта и Мэйбл Норманд. В фильме снимались в роли самих себя многие звёзды немого кино. В имени главного героя заменили всего две буквы. Изменены названия студий. Скандал с загадочным убийством Уильяма Тейлора заменен на автомобильную катастрофу и по-мелочи. Но много и придуманного. Мэйбл Норманд не была звездой Бродвея и попала в кинематограф без помощи Макка Сеннетта. Макк Сеннетт в фильме встречается со своим «двойником» в молодости.
