‘* Chaplin at his best . . . ‘ Pay Day,’ a screaming two-reeler in which the great comedian scores heavily . . . a riot of mirth . . . up to Chaplin’s best form and is a great winner. The public
who go to see this picture will not be disappointed. Although only two reels in length, it never flags from beginning to end. Showmen need no telling as to the drawing power of Chaplin on their programme. They ean safely book this one with. the consciousness that it will not only draw added patronage, but, still better, will send every picture-goer home delighted. * Pay Day’ is a real showman’s proposition.”’
—FILM RENTER.
‘* The new film is sure to please all light-hearted people, who revel in a spell of unrestrained laughter.’’
—GLASGOW RECORD.
‘Chaplin is still unique and the most entertaining comedian on the screen. ... . Excellent for all halls, both because of the star’s pulling power and for many of the situations.”’
—KINE WEEKLY.
‘Chaplin makes a very weleome reappearance in this film, which shows him in what we may term one of his artistic moods, gaining his laughs ina seemingly careless way, which really hides a tremendous amount of careful building up. . . . "The production is full of new touches of humour, and is carried out excellently in every way. We can very adequately describe it as one big laugh.”
—THE CINEMA.
‘“! Pay Day,’ Charlie’s latest film, may be numbered among the best, if it is not the best of his
productions. ’’ 3 —EVENING DISPATCH.
Chock full of new as humour and original gags that Pearl Films, Ltd.
make it-a riot of laughs. . . Once more Chaplin proves himself the king of comedians. ” 8688 Wardout St., —THE FILM DAILY (W!DS). London, W.1. & branches
