"Pay Day" was Charlie Chaplin's last short film, and a funny one at that. He plays a bricklayer who comes to work late one day and proceeds to work inefficiently, incurring the wrath of his monstrous foreman (Mack Swain). After the foreman underpays the bricklayer, he incorrectly adds up his overtime, and the foreman believes that he has been overpaid.
So, the bricklayer and his friends go to a bar and get drunk. After the bricklayer misses every streetcar, he arrives home at 5 am, finding that his wife is not one bit happy about it.
As always, Chaplin knew how to make a great movie.
