this be poorly do and not funny really and and just not that well put together . but and when view this sort of thing and i think it important to keep two thing in mind . # 1 represent the film industry be new and inexperienced . it be a treat for most folk just to see image throw up on a screen . # 2 represent chaplin be also new and inexperienced . he have not yet grow into that lovable little tramp . this be a period of learn via experimentation . give all of that and this be worth watch once if youre a chaplin fan just because it be such an early example of his work . if and on the other hand and youre not really into chaplin so much but just a fan of flick before the talkie fad come along and well and you can safely pass on this one and not miss much .
