In his Essanay film “Work” -Charlie plays a wall paper hanger who is constantly abused by his boss, Charlie telling his sad little story to Edna the maid, you start to feel bad for him much as Edna is - then he very quickly looks into the camera and gives us a wink. What a devil :)

just a pic i drew of charlie looking through the hole in the circus tent, hope you like it. I’m not much of an artist

Thanks you for the submission, I love this scene of him in The Circus, I like the fact that you felt inspired by him and always enjoy showing it. Most people can’t draw a straight line so don’t put your self down:)

I love posting or reblogging this photo, just awesomeness :) Charlie I think and some have said as much felt conflicted - wanting to be in front and in back of the camera - sometimes at the same time.

The Gold Rush - 1925

The moment when they both realize the is cabin tilting. The way Charlie flails his arms in fear is very child like - showing how frightened he is. Big Jim while probably afraid as well is more restrained.

yerflapper replied to your photo: Charlie & Edna in his 1915 Essanay film “WORK”

one of my favorite shorts. particularly this scene between charlie and edna - so charming and funny - and i would LOVE to know how to read lips to know what chaplin is saying to edna.

I had heard that he was basically giving her a sad story of his plight as a much put upon worker, his boss was pretty brutal to him, at one point he very quickly and ever so subtle winks into the camera to let the viewers in on it :)

CITY LIGHTS - 1931

The tramp agrees to get into the ring - splitting the $50.00 if they go easy on each other. Did not work out that way as this guy takes off and a bigger meaner boxer is put into the ring - winner take all.

“Cane In The Grating” seen on “Unknown Chaplin

“David later confessed that he was absolutely sick with excitement, realizing that we were seeing a film which Chaplin had shot and cut, and of which he had made a graded print – absolutely complete and perfect, in its own way – and which had lain on the shelf unknown to anyone outside Chaplin’s immediate circle for fifty years. It was pure cinema – no subtitles were needed, no sound effects could have improved it. The sequence was the essence of Chaplin’s art. For he, more than anyone else in pictures, could take the smallest object, the least promising prop., and turn it into a fabulously funny sequence”.

beckala19 replied to your photo: Chaplin P.S.A. :)

Just yesterday, I was on deviantart and I had to inform someone that the digital painting they did was not Charlie Chaplin, but this faux Chaplin here. Kind of sad, since they did a pretty good job on it too.

I feel kind of bad when I see someone get a tattoo of this guy and think “they are going to have fake Charlie on them for the rest of their lives”.
