The Property Man (1914)
Country: US
Technical: bw 28m
Director: Charles Chaplin
Cast: Charles Chaplin, Jess Dandy, Helen Carruthers, Charles Bennett
Synopsis:
Charlie plays a backstage hand who abuses his underling and makes eyes at the strong man's wife. He then singlehandedly sabotages a public variety performance.
Review:
There is some enterprising interplay involving the scenery curtain, with simultaneous proscenium and reverse action, but this is vulgar, overextended farce with no one to root for.
