One of the very first films featuring Charlie Chaplin. Seeing these first Chaplin films again is deeply moving. With a basic technique, they already conveyed the vast potential of a genius, talented for mime and comedy. If you nostalgically remember the first times you saw this funny character whose misfortunes made you laugh, forget about the visual imperfections and bear in mind this film was made more than sixty years ago.
