& „Sunnyside“ assuredly does not portray Charlie Chaplin‘s
„funnyside,“ Except for firm idolators of Chaplin,
many of whom laugh as soon as his face is flashed, the
new release holds few legitimate snickers even.
Edna Purviance, in the role of a Rube girl, not being

& Strand.
Joseph L. Plunkett, managing director of the Strand,
picked out a good program this week, though
on looking over the printed information about it several people
got a jolt of surprise. This was due to the fact that Plunkett
in the billing seemed to give his preference to the Paramount
offering, You‘re Fired, as against Charlie Chaplin in
Sunnyside, which First National gave him the exclusive
privilege of showing. A comparison of the pictures,
however, showed that Plunkett‘s judgement was good.
