Here again is Charlie at his brash, fearless best, and I love the parting shots of him and Mabel. Mabel Normand was sometimes called "the female Chaplin", and with good reason. They're even wearing similar hats, making the resemblance even more charming, even if it was unintentional.
Both of them - especially Charlie - are also so funny in their very deliberate retorts and attacks on their antagonists (while you notice other spectators in the film are laughing at the action going on as well).
I guess this was one of Chaplin's first directorial experiences, so I think he got off to a great start.
All I can otherwise say is, I LOVE IT!! :-D
