About Seven Keys to Baldpate
A writer rents what he believes is a deserted lodge in order to complete his novel. But then six other people show up one-by-one, each for reasons of their own.
Directed by Reginald Barker, Seven Keys to Baldpate leans on a strong ensemble — Richard Dix, Miriam Seegar, Margaret Livingston — to carry a story that balances spectacle with character.
The film landed with audiences for its craft and performances, and remains one of the most talked-about comedy titles of 1929.
