Poor man's dream

Warning: Spoilers
Charlot has to deal with cleaning tasks in a bank but falls in love for the secretary. In order to obtain her, he has to effort different comically violent situations and also fight against robbers. But the love of the woman, in conclusion, is reveals as a dream.

The movie, so, contains all elements of Chaplin's Charlot era: slapstick sketches, struggling to get the love of a woman, fights and equivocal situations. And like the other movie, Charlot follows all unfortunate events: when he is happy, it's just a dream, and in this rule is concreted the popular class condition in the first decades of 900s that Chaplin, with his irony, want to denounce.
