(it was commonly believed at the time that a sharp blow to the head could cause crossed eyes to uncross). Terrified of losing his claim to fame, Turpin was compliant for the rest of the day. 'Mack Sennett' (qv) himself heard the exchange, and from then on whenever Turpin started acting up on the set, Sennett would make the same "threat", and Turpin would immediately behave himself., He was not only a popular comedian, but his shrewd major investments in real estate made him one of the richest men in Hollywood., He invented a Hollywood tradition by being the first actor to receive a pie in his face.
