Easy Street (1917)
9/10
No tramp
15 March 2004
'Easy Street' is a short comedy from Charlie Chaplin and in this one he doesn't play his popular tramp. Although he is not the tramp I find this short one of the best from Chaplin I have seen. It is as funny as the other shorts he has made but for some reason the story here keeps your attention a lot easier. I had a great time watching this.

Chaplin is a police officer who must go to Easy Street where a man is causing some trouble. Chaplin arrests the man, sort of by accident, but because all the other police officers are scared of the man he manages to escape. He faces Chaplin once again, and the moments where Chaplin is followed are hilarious. There a lot of other very nice moments, and of course there is a girl. A terrific Chaplin short.
