Nuts in May (1917)
Nuts in May is a 1917 silent comedy short, directed by Robin Williamson and featuring Stan Jefferson (aka Stan Laurel) in his onscreen debut. It was filmed at Bernstein Studios, in Hollywood, California. Very little of the film survives (a little over 60 seconds). What does survive consists of Stan in various scrapes with a steamroller, ending with him in a straw boater being dragged off to the asylum.
