About Skinner's Dress Suit
Skinner is too timid to ask his boss for a salary increase, but also too timid to tell his wife he has not gotten it. He pretends to have received the raise and buys a new suit as proof. The stylish suit gives him confidence, soon he has been transformed into the dynamic and successful man he had pretended to be.
Directed by Harry Beaumont, Skinner's Dress Suit leans on a strong ensemble — Bryant Washburn, Hazel Daly, Virginia Valli — 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 1917.
