Audience Member Now, I've far from seen all Chaplin's films, but comparing to the ones I have seen, this is by far the worst one. Rated 1 out of 5 stars 02/17/23 Full Review Audience Member Pretty bad, considering Chaplin generally got better as he advanced his career. This last short in 1914 fails to follow that trend, although it is interesting to note that he improved on filming a dream again in a later short film 'Shoulder Arms.'
