Film

Charlie is released from prison and is immediately approached by a man who claims to be a church pastor (Billy Armstrong) who'll help him go straight. In reality, however, he's a scammer who frequently does disguises and swindles many other innocent people, including a drunk (James T. Kelley) who seems to be in little possession of his faculties.

チャップリンのエッサネイ社時代の最後の作品である。
ストーリーもしっかりしてきているが、まだドタバタの域か。
チャップリンは刑務所から釈放された、スリ。
