The Tramp (1915)
8/10
Satire and Wit
14 December 2006
Loosely based on Jacob and Rebekkeh from Bible. This is a comical love story where a man gets what he wants in spite of all obstacles. The Tramp delivers humor that bends the rules of his time period. This film influenced many future great comics. It has clever satire about society and pokes good fun at romance. Not his best but still a classic worth watching.

Be sure to watch when your wide awake. Chaplins films obviously lack the sound and picture quality of todays pictures. If you give it a go it won't disappoint.

If your looking to be impressed check out The Great Dictator and for a lot of fun watch Modern Times. Another great film by another director is Metropolis, this is a definite 10!
