About The Water Plug
Billy is on the bum. He sees a copper writing a ticket to a driver parked in front of a fire hydrant. The driver slips the cop some money to tear up the ticket. Billy acquires a fake fire plug and a policeman's badge, and sets out to make some money.
Directed by George Jeske, The Water Plug leans on a strong ensemble — Billy Franey, S.D. Wilcox, George Jeske — 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 1920.
