Curiosidades
Restoration work was carried out at L'Immagine Ritrovata laboratory in 2013.

Charlot, prestamista (1916) has been restored by Fondazione Cineteca di Bologna and Lobster Films, from a nitrate dupe negative from the Blackhawk Film Collection preserved at the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences and a nitrate print from the Library of Congress.

Some fragments were added from two nitrate prints preserved at the British Film Institute and the Cinémathèque Royale de Belgique, and a fine grain preserved at the Cinémathèque française.

Intertitles have been reconstructed according to the original Mutual Film intertitles and documents of the Library of Congress.

The surviving elements come from two different negatives. Negative A was restored whenever possible while negative B was used to reconstruct missing or severely damaged shots.

8/10

One of his finest

I've seen about 15 early shorts by Chaplin so far and this is definately in the top 5. Charlie works at a pawnshop and has to deal with several customers, his boss and ultimately a thief. But, once again, he saves the day.

Great slapstick early on with the 'ladder-scene' and later on with what seems to be a cello or contra-bass (I know nothing of those sort of things), hitting people in the face. There's also a very funny scene with an alarm-clock, which Charlie 'fixes', but not quite!

Although probably not up there with The Adventurer (my favorite short so far) or The Tramp, this is pretty funny stuff, even by Chaplins standards. Final score: 8/10.
