Posed still photo from the delightful situation comedy, MOVIE NIGHT: Charley Chase uses an umbrella to try and rob the theatre box-office. Charles A. Bachman portrayed the policeman. Note posters displayed to promote the coming attraction, Buster Keaton's THE CAMERAMAN. So we have a film, MOVIE NIGHT, about the exhibition of motion pictures at a movie theatre, where the coming attraction is a feature film about a motion picture newsreel cameraman. Both films were distributed by M-G-M. The scene was shot on the Hal Roach Studios backlot, using a standing theatre exterior set.
