Director Edward F. Cline was originally a vaudevillian who began working as an actor and gag writer for Keystone. He’d later go on to on to team up with with Buster Keaton both in films and as a director (Convict 13, The Boat, The Haunted House, etc.) It was his work with Keaton that inspired W.C. Fields to take a shine to his directing work.
