His Regeneration

This is a short that is included in the 2nd Essanay Chaplin DVD from Blackhawk Films. It's the last on the DVD and is NOT a short starring Chaplin. In fact, it's a Bronco Billy short and Chaplin makes a couple walk-on appearances early in the film that has nothing to do with the film at all. It looked like while they were filming, Chaplin just jumped into the scene and then left several times JUST WHEN THE MOVIE FIRST BEGAN. After that, Chaplin's gone and the film without him, isn't interesting. So, this film is just for the die-hard fans of Chaplin who want to see everything Charlie did.

A better and much more satisfying uncredited Chaplin walk-on is the movie THE NUT. In this Douglas Fairbanks comedy, there is a show in which the hero pretends to imitate various famous people at a party. The Chaplin imitation REALLY IS CHAPLIN!!! Now that's funny!
