Trivia, insights & behind the scenes
Most of Musty Suffer's 50+ films are lost; this survives only in fragments. What we have is likely reconstructed from multiple sources.
Harry Watson Jr. was half of Bickel & Watson, a vaudeville duo — his solo film career burned bright and brief, like Musty's employment.
