Becoming Charley Chase
14 March 2010
Accidental Accidents (1924)

(Fragments only)

This Jimmy Jump entry is missing seven full minutes so it's pretty much impossible to know what the film really is like. What we have here are two minutes that have been remastered and it appears that Jimmy (Charley Chase) is simply trying to avoid all accidents at whatever cost. The footage that remains includes Jimmy buying an umbrella to keep from getting wet yet he doesn't realize that his car doesn't have a roof. Another gag involves a street covered in water and Jimmy trying to place a board down to cross. Until the full film is found, this footage was at least included in the Becoming Charley Chase set (an extra on disc 2).
