this be the short chaplin short i have ever watch . a a result and there be absolutely no time for the development of a story something super important to good chaplin film . in addition and this film be almost pure slapstick with ton of pratfall and slapping and hitting and etc . because of this and the film have absolutely no depth or quality about it . it just people get hurt with little reason for this other than cheap laugh . so and i would not recommend this film to those who be not very familiar with chaplin work they will get the wrong idea about him . they would incorrectly assume he wasn not that funny and his film be quickly slap together . while this might be true of the very early film he make in 1914 and by 1915 he be and aside from this film and do good and more well crafted work .
