Enjoy the Show! _______________________ I Believe all media should be enjoyed ______________________ So here is a classic! _______________________ The Landlady’s Pet (1914) is a short silent comedy film made during Charlie Chaplin’s early period at Keystone Studios. It is also known under alternate titles, and sometimes confused with other Chaplin shorts due to the rapid, chaotic nature of Keystone’s production at the time. Plot Summary: In this short film, Chaplin plays a mischievous tenant staying at a boarding house run by a stern and overbearing landlady. He quickly gets into trouble by antagonizing the landlady’s beloved pets (often dogs or cats, depending on the version) and causing a series of accidents and misunderstandings inside the house. Slapstick chaos ensues: broken furniture, spilled food, chasing scenes, and lots of property damage — all the hallmarks of early Keystone comedy. The situation escalates to full-blown mayhem, involving other boarders and police officers. Key Features: Charlie Chaplin is beginning to refine his "Tramp" character — though he’s still rough around the edges compared to his later polished persona. Features classic Keystone slapstick: fast pacing, exaggerated reactions, and physical gags involving props, animals, and costume humor. Though short and simple in story, The Landlady’s Pet shows Chaplin's growing skill at building comic tension from everyday situations. Historical Note: Early Keystone films often shared actors, settings, and themes. Exact details about some shorts like The Landlady’s Pet can sometimes blur due to inconsistent record-keeping, but it's generally accepted that this film was one of the quick, one-reel comedies Keystone churned out during Chaplin’s first months there. Some prints may be fragmentary or incomplete today, depending on the surviving copies. Public Domain Status: As a 1914 release, The Landlady’s Pet is firmly in the public domain, and free to distribute, screen, and restore. _______________________ Thank you for watching — feel free to like, comment, and subscribe for more classic movies and other content that might be of interest. _______________________ #PublicDomain #PublicDomainMovies #ClassicMovies #FreeMovies #VintageMovies #RetroCinema #OldMovies #FullMovie #MovieNight #FreeToWatch #ClassicCinema #MovieLovers #CinemaHistory #FilmHistory #TimelessMovies #MustWatch #OldSchoolCinema #CultClassic #HiddenGems #NowPlaying #GoldenAgeOfCinema #MoviesOnline #WatchFree #ClassicHollywood #RetroMovies #PublicDomainFilm #FreeFilm #ClassicEntertainment #WatchNow #StreamingFree #MovieArchive #HistoricCinema #LegendaryMovies #FilmBuff #MovieBuff #IndependentCinema #ClassicAdventure #VintageFilm #OldSchoolMovies #ReliveTheClassics #PublicDomainCinema #TimelessClassics #CinematicTreasures #GoldenOldies #MovieClassics #RetroFilm #ClassicScreen #OldMovieNight #CinemaLovers
