The Cure

Independent Films, Public Domain, Comedy, Classic Movies

Charlie goes to a spa to dry out, but he takes a trunk of liquor with him. He tangles with another man's gouty foot in a revolving door. Later he thinks the gouty man is making love signs to him (he doesn't Edna, the real object of the man's efforts), so he signs back. He interprets a massage to be a wrestling match. When management throws his liquor into the fountain, when flow the healthful waters, everyone gets drunk.
