Production

Doogood was a Charlie Chaplin impersonator who had previously made a one-reel short film in South Australia, Charlie's Twin Brother.[2][3]

The film was shot on a cattle station owned by the Downer family in South Australia, near the Mount Lofty Ranges.[4] Technical facilities were provided by Southern Cross Feature Films.[5]

The film was well received and Doogood made plans for a follow up, Dinkum Oil, based on a novel by Frederick J Mills, but it was never shot.[1][6]

It is considered a lost film.
