Description
1 film reel (13 min.) : sd. b&w.; 16 mm.
Summary
Two country bumpkins survey the wonders of Coney Island. Setting these vaudeville characters against the real world results in curious juxtapositions of the natural and artificial. The narrative is slight but the settings are enticing as Rube and Mandy explore the various amusements. Interesting use of the close-up shot.
