His Trysting Place (1914, Charles Chaplin)
The Stop Button Posted by on Jun 7, 2012
The best thing about His Trysting Place is probably Frank D. Williams’s photography. Chaplin’s athletics are impressive, but he doesn’t have much use for them. They’re most exciting during his food fight with Mack Swain. The food fight itself isn’t particularly funny read more

His Prehistoric Past (1914, Charles Chaplin)
The Stop Button Posted by on Feb 23, 2012
Chaplin opens His Prehistoric Past setting it up as a dream sequence, which lets the viewer know the outcome can’t be too dramatic. But the setup is immediate–Chaplin falls asleep on a park bench–so the more relatable elements in the dream don’t have much substance. In the d read more

On a trip to Norwich yesterday, I was delighted to see a human statue paying tribute to Charlie Chaplin. When I put some money in the hat he gave me a little bow!

♥ Silent Sweethearts: Charlie Chaplin and Edna Purviance ♥
A Person in the Dark Posted by FlickChick on Feb 11, 2011
One of the reasons I love Charlie Chaplin's Little Tramp above all others is that he is romantic. Yes, he is clever, acrobatic and hysterically funny, but there is a depth to his character that was introduced through the element of romance. Before Edna Purviance (his leading lady from 1915-1923), Ch read more
