Harrison Ford is starring in Scott Sidney's

screenplay by F. McGrew Willis, produced by Al Christie.

There is also Phyllis Haver (pétillante), and for the other remarkable parts, Chester Conklin and Mack Swain,

and a sophisticated lady named Vera Steadman:

Many funny moments of many different kinds in this movie (among which the recalling of the stick-up à la Rashomon). And a remarkable stunt in the end, a chase between the Ford (equipped with a chariot wheel at the rear left) and the Rolls-Royce.

Baube wrote didn't knew Harrison Ford was that old...

I read something about Harrison Ford (the young) stepping hapazardly on Harrison Ford (the old)'s star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame, before he became an actor. Who knows? Maybe that was the spark which started his career.

This Harrison Ford was a famous leading male until the advent of the talkie era, for which he couldn't grade (I'm still puzzled to understand why, when learning he was at the same time a celebrated thespian).

About the ladies, I learn that both Phyllis Haver and Vera Steadman were former Sennett Bathing Beauties.

… And Al Christie was the first director of the first movie studios located in Hollywood, Nestor Studios, on October 1911.
