IMDb plot summary: The Tramp cares for an abandoned child, but events put that relationship in jeopardy.
Directed by Charles Chaplin. Starring Charles Chaplin, Jackie Coogan, Carl Miller, and Edna Purviance.
Nice mix of comedy and drama -- some really lovely images highlighting character sadness, as well as a few laugh-out-loud moments. Maybe my favorite Chaplin after The Great Dictator?
