Review by michaelchager

The respectfully dressed but violent cad played by Chaplin would pare down in later movies with Normand to a dignified tramp capable of effective outbursts of combat although less so against Mack Swain or an inflated dummy from which he would protect Mabel. In Caught in a Cabaret he would rescue Mabel from an attacker in the ubiquitous park. Here not yet a Tramp the cad provides support with Conklin for the prima Mabel whose spinning haymakers are as wild as any at Keystone. Mabel attained the top box office attendance ever in Mickey to be exceeded by Snow White twenty years later. Here with Chaplin briefly on second fiddle is the most talented twosome Sennett had.
