Storyline

- TriviaThe house the family appears from is in reality Charles Chaplin's office.
- Goofs(at around 2 mins) As Father (Charles Chaplin) struggles with the cantankerous car, a pedestrian comes into view on the far sidewalk in the background. Either realizing a film is being shot or waved off by the crew, he turns around and walks away, but he pauses to look back over his shoulder just before he walks out of sight.

Featured review
Chaplin is married with a couple kids. They appear to be 10-12 years old or so. Once they get the car started, a major task, they head off to a pier where they will get on an excursion boat. The sign says, children in arms are free, so he carries these two kids onto the boat. From there on things don't go well. Thee is seasickness, fist fighting, and a misunderstanding husband. Upon there return, there is a hilarious series of events at an intersection. No Academy Award her, but non stop craziness.
