About How the 'Duke of Leisure' Reached His Winter Home
Percival, a master-mind in the army of the deliberately unemployed, visits a fashionable restaurant and piles up a large meal by impertinent orders, but, before he gets a chance to eat he is detected and thrown out. He breaks a store window and so loudly proclaims his guilt that the police do not believe him.
Directed by Charles H. France, How the 'Duke of Leisure' Reached His Winter Home leans on a strong ensemble — John Lancaster, Charles H. France, Mac Barnes — 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 1912.
