Storyline:
Charles Chaplin, with his big feet performing their usual mirth-provoking perambulations, wanders down to the sea shore. There is some wind blowing, so Chaplin anchors his hat to his head with a cable. He meets a pedestrian whose hat is similarly attached. The two bump, their hats fly off and they scramble for them. When the hats finally are recovered, each has the wrong one. This causes considerable embarrassment when the two cables go taut as the two men separate. Anger soon takes the place of embarrassment when the cables become hopelessly entangled, and they battle all over the beach. After they have fought themselves weary, they shake hands and decide to have a drink. They get ice cream cones and each insists the other have the honor of paying for them. This is unsatisfactory to the drug clerk and another row starts. They smear each other with ice cream and incidentally bespatter a six-foot dandy, which precipitates still more trouble. While the battle is still in progress Chaplin leaves his new-found pal in the lurch and slips off to flirt with the sweetheart of the dandy. His perfidy is discovered, however, and the result would stir the risibilities of the most forlorn gloom.

Reviews:
“This movie follows the rules of a screwball comedy, a bunch of odd-ball characters in a setting acting foolishly and building to a riotous crescendo. The movie when two men at the seaside collide and entangle themselves a string around their legs. Their petty fights go on to involve a woman, her suitor, a young wife, an icecream stand, a couple of policemen and all this set on the windy day of the sandy beaches. If the aim is to show the happenings at the beach, such as a Jacques Tati comedy which are character study comedies, it fails. But I do not think that is the intention, for no one exists on the beach beyond the characters we are watching. I do remember seeing a man in the background running towards the water. No, this movie wants to make you laugh, and so it does as the pettiness of the characters scramble you into the issues of pettiness that have been blown up into a mountain by you and in this cries out the laughs of this movie. Well-done and acted. Not as technical as other Chaplin shorts but funny as hell.”
