Max Hits the High Spots

• Watchlist

Max, getting well into the bachelor's realm, is continually nagged by his uncle to marry the beautiful Elise Surecuf, which would very much please the timid Max, but alas, how can he muster the courage to do it. When at the house of the young lady, who it may be said is rather sweet on the immaculate Max, he becomes so nervous, that to the presence in the room he says nothing and departs. Angered, the girl's mother asks the now snarling uncle to take the saccharine Max out to see the life. All the life they see amounts to nothing, but all the life they put into the café loungers amounts to quite a riot of fun. Much the worse for over indulgence in distilled courage, they are unceremoniously thrown from the now deserted café at 7 o'clock in the morning. Unable to hire a cab, which the now untamed Max wishes to drive, they purchase one. The way he drives, or rather manipulates it through the crowded thoroughfare, is as sensational as it is funny.
