ONE MAMA MAN

Cinemavixion Review

This delightful short from 1927, "One Mama Man," starring the inimitable Charley Chase, is a testament to the enduring charm of silent comedy. As part of the "Charley Chase at Hal Roach: The Late Silents 1927" collection, this film offers a glimpse into the masterful physical comedy and impeccable timing that defined Chase's career. While the external data suggests a slightly different title, "A One Mama Man," and credits James Parrott as director, the core elements—Chase's presence and the 1927 release—firmly establish its identity. The film, likely a short comedy as indicated by its genre classification, showcases Chase's unique ability to navigate absurd situations with a signature blend of befuddlement and resilience. Though specific plot details are scarce in the provided local data, the recommendation to view it from a Blu-ray set focused on Chase's late silent work speaks volumes about its quality and historical significance. It's a recommended watch for aficionados of classic Hollywood comedy and a wonderful opportunity to rediscover the comedic genius of Charley Chase.
