What happens

Too Many Engagements è un cortometraggio muto del 1911 prodotto dalla Essanay di Chicago. Il nome del regista non viene riportato nei credit del film che era interpretato da John Steppling. L'attore, di origine tedesca, è qui ai primi passi di una carriera che sarebbe durata fino al 1932 e nel corso della quale avrebbe preso parte ad oltre duecento e cinquanta pellicole.
