🎬 Charlie Chaplin in "The Pawnshop" (1916) – Silent Comedy Gold
Watch Charlie Chaplin in one of his most beloved Mutual comedies, The Pawnshop, released on October 2, 1916. This is Chaplin’s 56th film and his sixth for Mutual Film Corporation, packed with clever slapstick, sharp physical comedy, and that unmistakable Tramp charm.
In this short film, Chaplin plays a mischievous pawnshop assistant who battles with coworkers, flirts with the boss’s daughter (played by Edna Purviance), and hilariously dismantles an alarm clock in front of its worried owner (Albert Austin). With Henry Bergman as the pawnshop owner and Eric Campbell appearing as a would-be thief, the chaos only escalates.
From absurd brawls to a foiled robbery attempt, The Pawnshop delivers non-stop laughs and showcases why Chaplin became the king of silent-era comedy.
🕰️ A must-watch for classic film lovers, comedy fans, and Chaplin enthusiasts alike.
