Storyline
Did you know
- TriviaThe house the family appears from is in reality Charles Chaplin's office.
- Goofs(at around 2 mins) As Father (Charles Chaplin) struggles with the cantankerous car, a pedestrian comes into view on the far sidewalk in the background. Either realizing a film is being shot or waved off by the crew, he turns around and walks away, but he pauses to look back over his shoulder just before he walks out of sight.

Featured review
A DAY'S PLEASURE IS A PLEASURE TO SEE!
A DAY'S PLEASURE is a pleasure to see. It's not on the same level as Chaplin's A DOG'S LIFE or SHOULDER ARMS, but it might be a step above SUNNYSIDE. It really is funny. Chaplin plays a married man. First, he has a time trying to get his car started, then has a load of mishaps aboard a pleasure cruise ship. Finally, the traffic jam sequence is a laugh riot. The usual Chaplin players-Edna Purviance, Tom Wilson, Henry Bergman, Albert Austin, Loyal Underwood, even Jackie Coogan-are all as great as usual. A DAY'S PLEASURE is worth seeing if you're a Chaplin fan. For comedy lovers alone, it might not be as big a treat. Either way, it's funny.
