What it’s about. Mabel plays an out-and-out crook, a "Girl Bandit," no less. And she quickly hooks up with a male partner in crime, in this case a Gentleman Crook played by perpetually grinning Creighton Hale. Mabel seems a little livelier in this film than in some of her other late works. In the very first scene we find her hitch-hiking, and she's forced to make a mad dash for cover when Hale's car nearly hits her. Soon they team up and crash a swanky party in a mansion to steal a jewel from the host's safe.

Who’s in it. Should Men Walk Home? stars Mabel Normand as The Girl Bandit, Creighton Hale as The Gentleman Crook, Eugene Pallette as Detective, Intelligence Bureau and Oliver Hardy as Party Guest at Punch Bowl.
