Chaplin is then shown flirting with a woman; Lehrman enters to present the woman with flowers and sees Chaplin. A slapstick fight between the two ensues. Later, Lehrmans character takes a photograph of an automobile accident; Chaplins character steals the camera whilst the journalist is helping a trapped motorist and rushes back to the paper with it to claim the photograph as his own. A short pursuit with the Keystone Kops follows.[2] Chaplins performance[edit] Chaplin wore a large moustache and a top hat in this film, he also carries a walking cane. Chaplins famed screen persona of The Little Tramp did not appear until his next film, Kid Auto Races at Venice, but his character in this film is somewhat similar, having hat, cane, moustache and baggy trousers.[3] In later accounts Chaplin lamented that the best of his performance had been left out of the final cut.[4] Lehrman later admitted to deliberately mishandling the cutting of the film out of spite for Chaplin.[5] The Fremont Hotel, Los Angeles is shown briefly in the background of a fighting scene in the road.
