The Eclectic Cinema Presents:
Four Charlie Chaplin Comedies (U)
USA | 1916 | 103 mins
Directed by: Charles Chaplin
Starring: Charles Chaplin | Edna Purviance | Eric Campbell | Lloyd Bacon
In 1916, aged 26, Charles Chaplin signed a contract with the Mutual Film Corporation to make 12 two-reel comedies over the course of twelve months. We shall screen four of these comedies in the Green Room Bar, with a short interlude between each one (providing an opportunity for purchases from the bar).
The Floorwalker U (29 mins)
The Fireman U (24 mins)
The Vagabond U (24 mins)
One A.M. U (26 mins)
These films are among the best and most famous of Chaplin’s short comedies, which were important forerunners of his feature films, such as Modern Times (1936) – The Eclectic Cinema’s inaugural screening, back in January 2022.
