Monsieur Don't Care is a 1924 American silent comedy film starring Stan Laurel as "Rhubarb Vaselino". The film is a parody of the Rudolph Valentino film Monsieur Beaucaire (1924). Laurel, during the years 1922-25, had indeed "specialized in parodies of popular hits of the day".[1] Like Olcott's film, the short is set in France under Louis XV.[2]
