Out West
Over the hot sands
Directed by Roscoe Arbuckle
Produced by Comique Film Company
A lighthearted silent comedy romp through the Old West, built on physical gags, absurd situations, and the triumph of good-natured heroes over villainous foils.
The story involves Arbuckle coming to the western town of Mad Dog Gulch after being thrown off a train and chased by Indians. He teams up with gambler/saloon owner Bill Bullhum, in trying to keep the evil Wild Bill Hickup away from Salvation Army girl, Salvation Sue. Fatty and Buster have a series of adventures trying to beat St. John, until they discover his one weakness: his ticklishness.
