Chaplin - A Woman (film #26 in the Silent Section of Movieflix. [Category: Early Film & TV]

The Little Tramp gets into some farsical situations with a family he meets in the park, consisting of a mother, an adult daughter, and a father with a roving eye. After knocking Dad into the pond, he goes home with Mother and Daughter. After some silly things happen, he ends up putting on Daughter's best dress and passing himself off to Dad as her old college chum. Dad, of course, cannot keep his hands off the merchandise, at least until he figures out who he's trying to woo. This is not quite as funny as it sounds, but Chaplin does make a surprisingly attractive and convincing woman. A 1915 Charlie Chaplin film.
