Written and directed by Charlie Chaplin.
Mabel Normand is brilliant as the frazzled wife and mother. |
"Here, play with this [a gun!]" |
This is not the first film to show Charlie with a wife, but it is the first to show him in a domestic situation. |
Charlie tries to shield himself from Mack Swain's sloppy eating. |
After a brawl with Mack Swain at the restaurant, Charlie accidently takes his coat, and vice versa. |
Due to the coat mix-up, Mabel thinks Charlie is "trysting" with Phyllis Allen. |
And you can imagine what Phyllis is thinking when she finds a baby bottle in her "husband's" coat. |
But all's well that ends well... |
