Synopsis
A Day's Pleasure (1919) is a silent Charlie Chaplin comedy short you can watch online on iFILM. In about eighteen minutes the Tramp loads his wife and kids into a Model T for a day out that goes wrong at every turn.
A stubborn car that won't start, a queasy ferry ride across choppy water, and a chaotic drive home with sticky tar and snarled traffic — that's the whole gag, and Chaplin milks each one. Edna Purviance plays his wife and a tiny Jackie Coogan tags along. Made between Chaplin's bigger pictures, it runs on pure physical timing. A breezy entry point for anyone curious about early silent slapstick. Stream A Day's Pleasure online on iFILM.
