Chaplin's "The Pawnshop"

Posted by danj on May 3, 2009 at 09:49:27:
I watched this 1916 film last night and spent the whole time laughing. It's slapstick done by the master and a thoroughly entertaining film. I hope you all have a chance to watch this little piece of movie history.

A quote from IMDB:

"The Pawnshop was Charlie Chaplin's sixth film for Mutual Film Company. Chaplin played the role of assistant to the pawnshop owner. Henry Bergman played the owner and Edna Purviance the owner's daughter. Albert Austin played an alarm clock owner who watches Charlie in dismay as he checks out the clock. This was one of Chaplin's more popular Mutual Films, mainly for the slapstick comedy he was famous for at the time."
