The Art of Gag #2 Frenetic Chase - Charlie Chaplin - The Adventurer (1917) [Extract]

Charlie Chaplin demonstrates a perfect mastery of his comic art in this quintessential cop chase scene. His character is unstoppable, running round and round the place with endless gag variations, here dodging the policemen, there knocking out the antagonist character, donning a lampshade to pose as a floor lamp, or finding time to stop and kiss the girl. A classic gem!

Extract from The Adventurer (1917). Directed by Charlie Chaplin. Also starring Edna Purviance and Eric Campbell.
