The H what a pioneer charlie is Rated 3 out of 5 stars 01/28/24 Full Review Audience Member This one gets redundant and annoying as we Chaplin playing with only himself as a drunkard for way too long, attempting to get into his house and eventually into bed with his stupor being the only obstacle. I do have to recall yet another fond memory, as with Vagabond, as this is the first Chaplin film I've seen with my girlfriend, and marks the second with Cristian's participation. Chaplin appears to be bourgeois here, a far cry from his usual paltry means. I think it reads better than something like Fireman, but is just a bit too self-indulgent. Chaplin is better having other actors to play off of. I do love the design of this film and the various set pieces we get, from the exterior to the taxidermy laden interior, the bedroom with the anthropomorphic bed, and a stylish bathroom, even by today's standards, with a very unique shower. Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars 01/12/23 Full Review jack c Da Tramp aka DRUNK ASS TRAMP I loved every frame of it. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 03/31/23 Full Review Audience Member Chaplin plays a wealthy man who comes home at one a.m. after a night of drinking, and finds everything in his way an obstacle to getting to bed. In this famous slapstick short, Chaplin performs a hilarious one man show which not only shows his comedic ability but also his incredible creativity in his interaction with every prop and inch of the set. Magnificent in its simplicity. Rated 4 out of 5 stars 01/24/23 Full Review Audience Member Though it's a short, this is one of the best comedy skits ever made.for one man to sustain such comic and physical ingenuity for over 20 minutes of one poor soul"s efforts of trying to get to bed after a tipsy night, this is nothing short of amazing! Rated 5 out of 5 stars 02/07/23 Full Review Audience Member Chaplin's fourth film is raw and rather dull. The gags are obvious and his drunk character just doesn't come off natural. Some gags went on for a bit to long (the spinning table) and others just seemed out of place. Yet for such an early film One A.M. deserves recognition.
