Her First Kiss
Her First Kiss, where the glamorous Ethel Teare trades her fancy gowns for the rough attire of Minnie Spuds, the gawky farm girl who Chester tries to swindle. Whether dangling from a ladder, teetering over a cliff in a horse-and-buggy, or wielding a mop, Minnie may be from the sticks but never misses a beat.
