„It didn‘t look well“
Editorial content. „PALACE.“ (...)
„A Charlie Chaplin Essanay, By the Sea, opened. In it
Chaplin went back to first principles, slap stick and
falls from the original Karno stuff. It didn‘t look well. Chaplin
at one time appeared to be making his own comedy,
by pantomime mostly, using the rough stuff incidentally, but
it seems as though the Essanay are working him too
much and too hard. In matter like By the Sea Chaplin appears
to be his own scenario writer, director and company.
There‘s not much fun in it for anybody below the gallery
in the Palace.“ (...)
