Recreation, starring Charlie Chaplin, originally released August 13, 1914

In Recreation Charlie the little tramp is walking in the park. (Charlie Chaplin famously said that all he needs to make a comedy is a policeman, a park, and a pretty girl—and this is proof of that maxim). A pretty girl leaves her boyfriend, a sailor who has fallen asleep, on one bench and joins Charlie on another. The seaman wakes up, and he and Charlie stage a fight with bricks. Policemen get hit with bricks as part of the melee, and both men are arrested. During an ensuing fight on the dock, everyone involved—the policemen, the sailor, Charlie the little tramp and the girl—all wind up in the water.
