Why Worry?**       
(US 1923)   

A hypochondriac millionaire eventually makes a man of himself on vacation on a Mexican island where a local revolution is taking place.
Highly contrived star comedy, disappointing as a follow up to Lloyd's classic Safety Last, but with individual gags and set pieces that please, even if the story doesn't hang together.
