One A.M. (1916) [w/Commentary]

Director: Charles Chaplin
Writer: Charles Chaplin
Stars: Charles Chaplin, Albert Austin

Drunk as a skunk, Charlie arrives home by taxi after a wild night out, only to realise that he has lost his key. Now, as an open window becomes the entrance, practically every single item or piece of furniture–including a possessed Murphy bed–becomes a formidable and insurmountable obstacle standing in his way, and working against him. Can't a man find peace at 1 o'clock in the morning?
