His Musical Career


Heavy lifting. Mixed-up addresses. Trouble by the piano-load.

Charlie lands a job as a piano mover, teaming up with a burly partner to deliver one instrument and repossess another. But a mix-up over house numbers sends their working day into chaos, with frustrated customers and a piano that proves difficult to control.

Starring Charlie Chaplin and Mack Swain, this lively silent short turns a simple delivery job into a procession of comic mishaps and classic slapstick.
