The Cure Scenes
& Charlie Is Having His Troubles
A telegram from Charlie Chaplin to the Mutual Film
Corporation makes it necessary to postpone the
release date of the next Mutual-Chaplin special, „The Cure,“
from March 19 to April 16. Charlie telegraphs:
„Owing to the incessant rains on the coast, and because
I do not care to run the chance of a single Chaplin
release being in any way below quality, it is impossible
to complete ,The Cure‘ according to schedule.“

& MUTUAL-CHAPLIN.
THE CURE (Two Parts – March). – Charlie goes to a health
resort to overcome his liking for liquor. His baggage
consists of a trunk full of booze, a collar, toothbrush and shirt.
He meets Edna and falls in love with her. The hotel
proprietor discovers the trunk full of booze and throws it out
of the window, the contents landing in the well. Chaplin
finds all of the hotel patrons at the well, drinking freely of the
water and feeling very gay. He and Edna join the crowd
and the result is that all of the hotel guests become intoxicated
and a fine time ensues.
