gallery, Art Dodge, who has known better days. Art falls in love

have a twin brother with a bohemian past, Bart. Art plays both
brothers throughout the film until the very end, when he finally
and reluctantly concedes to marry Betty. But, will he be able to
play the role of bridegroom and best man simultaneously?
