Mighty Like a Moose	comment	Mighty Like a Moose is a 1926 silent 23-minute comedy film directed by Leo McCarey and starring comedy veteran Charley Chase.In this film Chase is Mr. Moose, a prosperous married man who is afflicted with a grotesque overbite. His wife, Mrs. Moose, is afflicted with a falcon's beak of a nose. Mr. Moose saves up to get dental surgery to fix his horrible overbite—while his wife is getting plastic surgery to fix that nose. The Mooses, who both go to the same plastic surgeon, meet each other outside the doctor's office after their surgeries. They each fail to recognize each other. Naturally, they wind up arranging to meet for a date.One of the best of dozens of silent and sound short comedy films Chase made during the 1920s and 1930s.

Mighty Like a Moose / int_232e4ee0	type	Holding Both Sides of the Conversation
Mighty Like a Moose / int_232e4ee0	comment	Holding Both Sides of the Conversation: After figuring out that his girl is actually his wife, Mr. Moose scares her to death by rapidly changing in and out of a robe and putting on/taking off his fake teeth, tricking her into thinking that both men are in the house. He then goes so far as to stage a fake fight, in a long comic sequence that has him tussling around a doorway. Amusingly, she gets bored with the fight, even before she reads a newspaper plastic surgery advertisement and finally figures out that her husband and her would-be lover are the same person.
