CGiii Comment

Chaplin in drag...it's violent and dreadfully unfunny.

The violence against women is a bit of a shocker...


Watch...

The(ir) Blurb...

Charlie plays a woman, jealous over her husband's interest in another woman. She gets in the way of a cameraman, knocks over a director and a policeman, and gets thrown into a crowd of spectators at a military parade. She attacks her husband and his new flame. The husband throws her off the pier into the harbor.
