Harold Lloyd lives on a ranch with his father and two older brothers, and he's never allowed to join in what they perceive to be man's business, because he's just a squirt. Well no one calls Lloyd a squirt and gets away with it for long.
"The Kid Brother" was by all accounts one of Lloyd's personal favorites, and it also took longer to make than most of his other films. It's not one of my personal favorites -- I like the more physical Lloyd comedies that allow him to show off his athleticism and derring do. But for Lloyd fans, or fans of silent comedy in general, there's a lot to like here.
Grade: B
