The Nut (1921 film)
''The Nut'' is a 1921 American silent film comedy directed by Theodore Reed.〔(''The Nut'' at the silentera.com database )〕
Fairbanks biographer Jeffrey Vance writes, "Admittedly a minor work, ''The Nut'' is frequently dismissed in critical assessments of Fairbanks's career. This is unfortunate, for it contains some fascinating sequences and reveals much about the actor-producer's state of mind at the time it was made." 〔Vance, Jeffrey. Douglas Fairbanks. Berkeley, CA: University of California Press, 2008, 86.〕 Vance also notes, "The picture is like a chaotic funhouse, filled with magical masquerades, illusions, and gimmicks of great momentary amusement."〔Vance, Jeffrey. Douglas Fairbanks. Berkeley, CA: University of California Press, 2008, 89.〕
==Plot==
Based upon a summary in a film publication, Charlie (Fairbanks) has a girlfriend Estrell (De La Motte) who has a theory that if rich people would take a number of poor children into their homes each day, the environment would cause the children to grow up properly. Since Estrell does not know any of these rich people, Charlie offers to arrange a meeting. However, Charlie thinks impostors will do as well as the real rich people, so first he hires some men who turn out to be burglars and gamblers. Then he tries using dummies, but Estell is not fooled and becomes indignant. A wealthy man working as a reporter goes to investigate a report of a man dragging a body which turns out to be Charlie moving a dummy, allowing Charlie to finally meet someone rich. Estell is satisfied and agrees to marry him.
