You really have to feel sorry for Snub Pollard's character in "Punch the Clock". A woman is cheating on her very jealous husband. He finds out and incorrectly assume the guy is Snub...and he's prepared to kill the guy. What's Snub to do?! Well, run of course, as the husband is a large and angry man...with a gun!! And, hopefully, through it all Snub will STILL be able to get to work on time!
This is a pretty mindless but also pretty funny short. While it's not among Pollard's best ("It's a Gift") it's very pleasant and well worth your time.
It's interesting that in the credits it lists Charles Parrott (Charley Chase) as 'supervising' this production. While he directed many films for Hal Roach, I assume in this case he was either the gag writer or producer...or both.
