Easy StreetIn this feature, Chaplin swops in his trademark walking cane for a policeman's truncheon. Easy Street is a part of town occupied by folk who are rough and tough - not the sort of place for a small and skinny policeman to walk his beat. However, in this classic tale, Chaplin demonstrates that the little guy can win the day.
The Knockout
This is really a Fatty Arbuckle film in which Chaplin has a small part as a troubled and trouble making boxing referee. As with most Keystone' comedies, those officers of law and lunacy, The Keystone Cops, ensure that the comic prize fight is followed by a frenzied and chaotic chase. Fatty Arbuckle's boxing opponent in this film, Edgar Kennedy, was a real boxer, once going 14 rounds with the great lack Dempsey.- Actors:
