About Polishing Up
When his wife goes away on vacation, a husband decides to use that time to do a little "playing around" and winds up at a resort hotel with two young girls. Unbeknownst to him, his wife is at the same hotel, planning a little "playing around" of her own.
Directed by George D. Baker, Polishing Up leans on a strong ensemble — John Bunny, Flora Finch, Phyllis Grey — 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 1914.
