Funniest moment?
I'm kind of torn between Chaplin trying to pick which city to go to and 1st picks Sing Sing and trying to cut the cake.

I'll go with the train station scene with the two elopers. First the man starts chasing Chaplin, then Chaplin notices the cop and tries to run the other way and runs into the Father and both the wanna-be husband and Chaplin takes off running the other way.
Also, at the end where he straddles the border because he's not sure where he can go.
I'm usually not very fond of kids in movies, but for me it certainly was that little boy slapping at everyone's face, and then picking them with that stick.

That "kid" was Dean Riesner, who later in life was a screenwriter, contributing such classic bits as the famous "Feel lucky?" speech in DIRTY HARRY and "go medieval on ya" dialogue in CHARLEY VARRICK.
