The Campus Vamp


The Campus Vamp 1928 is a silent comedy short starring Daphne Pollard and Johnny Burke. This early Mack Sennett comedy features a young Carole Lombard as well as the early two color Technicolor film for a beach sequence including a game of beach baseball.

We cut to the dance. Matty is dancing with carole and Sally looks on sadly. Barney appears, dressed at his best and talks to Sally. He asks her to dance and she accepts. They retire from the dancefloor after a large girl steps on Barneys foot. His shoe splits at the sole and he creates a makeshift repair. Sally watches Carole showing off her flapper dress and doing the Charleston in front of Matty. The fat girl returns picks up the entire pile of straws and drinks all the punch. Dora goes to refill the punchbowl, giving Barney a huge lump of ice to hold. It melts and makes it look like he has wet his trousers, and he slopes off. Dora returns and tries to sit sally on Mattys lap and make them kiss. But he sits on the wet patch left by Barney and jumps up. Sally thinks it is due to her. Carole takes advantage and jumps on his lap instead.We jump to the beach and the film jumps to colour. The students are playing baseball. Barney is the umpire. Sally helps to win the match and at last kisses Matty. Dora and Barney cuddle and have their own kiss. ........
