When “The Kid” was first released this scene was censored a bit in some countries, the idea of him checking the baby’s sex to determine if it was a boy or a girl was a bit much I guess.
Charlie Chaplin is a Screen Legend, Icon & most recognizable human being of the 20th Century.
124 years after his birth he still fascinates people of all walks of life, that is a testament in an of itself.
He was "Ahead of His Time"
Charlie "The Tramp" belonged to all of us.
Though he became a rich & famous man he never forgot where he came from - a poor cockney boy from Victorian England.
My favorite Chaplin quote:
"My prodigious sin was, and still is, being a non-conformist"

Charlie Chaplin is for the Ages
