Joey and His Trombone (1915)
Joey playing on his trombone drove all Ezra Perkin's customers away, and although Ezra was his projective father-in-law and employer, he couldn't stand for that, so he gave Joey the grand bounce. Joey went to the city, got a job with a German band, and Tillie Perkins, his sweetheart, joined him there. Then the trouble began, somebody insulted Joey's musical dignity, and he lost his job. While wandering around the city, Joey and Tillie came upon a moving picture studio, and applied for work. The director, realizing the opportunity for comedy presented by Joey and his trombone, not to mention the fearful Tillie, took them in his cast. Everything went well until they made a bullfighter out of Joey and Carmen out of Tillie. Then Joey, feeling that his trombone not having a leading part was an insult to him, began to spoil for a fight. The cup boiled over when the heavy made stage-love to Tillie, and the Mexican War began. Things flew thick and fast, and it wound up by Joey and Tillie and his faithful trombone taking up their belongings and walking back to the old town.
