A Woman
About A Woman
A mother, father, and daughter go to the park. The women sleep on a bench. The father, blindfolded, plays with a girl, and Charlie walks him into the lake. Both women invite Charlie to dinner. When the father comes home with a friend, Charlie runs upstairs, shaves the mustache, and dresses as a woman. Both men fall for him.
