Charlie's Recreation (1914)

Also known as "Tango Tangle" this is a rather run-of-the-mill early Charlie Chaplin film, most notable for the fact he doesn't have a moustache! Although he doesn't play The Tramp (in appearance) the character he does play - causing mayhem at the dance is pretty familiar at times!

So Charlie turns up at a dance drunk and tries to impress some girls, he continually falls over instead of course. And he is pursued by Fatty Arbuckle for some reason (cue more slapstick). Really it isn't that good, Chaplin hadn't yet found the right character for his comedy work but you could see a few signs here and there. A work in progress.
