THE PAWNSHOP (Theatrical Release USA 1916)

 

Ben Meyers’ Rating: 3.9|5.0 Stars
ììì 

The Pawnshop—silent short film—revolves around the comedic talents of Charles Chaplin. This is not the best of the Chaplin lineup of films, but it has been put together well and has its own sense of originality.

? Yes? No? Maybe? 

Yes. This Charlie Chaplin film may not be the best of this actor, but it is a suitable afternoon watch when looking for quick, light entertainment.
