Douglas Fairbanks amazes me. I've been watching his adventure movies lately and decided to watch this 1920 movie. He was also an effective comedian. The man had talent. In this movie, his psychiatrist plans an experiment on Douglas to see just how miserable he can make his patient. This includes making sure that he doesn't get the girl. My sister who watched this with me said this movie reminded her of "The Truman Show." Actually, this movie was pretty funny at times. This movie also features a scene where Douglas walks on the ceiling and floor predating Fred Astaire's later attempt.
