    Great Early One-Reeler
    Chaplin really starts breaking out in this directorial debut for Keystone, and one sees glimmers of the greatness already in this 1914 short. Worth seeing for the comedy bits especially at the beginning, with his physical comedy on stairs, park benches, etc. Apparently, Chaplin was made of rubber. You'll be scratching your head wondering how he did those stunts, they seem pretty dangerous.
