Chaplin vs. machine

[GeorgeBaileyoffsky]

I couldn’t decide if this goes GQ or Cafe Society.

Did Charlie Chaplin ever fight with a hand-crank car in one of his movies? My memory of silent film comedies might be all running together and I want to make sure I have this right.

Thanks.

A Day’s Pleasure, 1919

Charlie Chaplin spends what seems like about half of the film’s 18 minutes trying to get his Model-T started, but then redeems himself by utilizing a large woman as a gang plank and contemplating harpooning her with various nautical accoutrements.

Thank you, FI, you are very helpful indeed. Now I will fear nothing, not even you!
