Film Notes
In A Busy Day he actually combines aspects of the female roles. He is a battleax when he catches husband Mack Swain with another woman, and (…) he tries to wring laughter from his “unfeminine” behaviour, including repeatedly wiping his nose with his dress.
Dan Kamin, Chaplin’s One-Man Show (Scarecrow Press, 1984)
