28. Chaplin's, The Kid: By Stephen M. Weissman MD
- www.american.edu
- Chaplin's, The Kid.
- Weissman Like Moses among the bullrushes Oedipus on the mountainside, or Snow White in her Disneyland forest, Charlie Chaplin's The Kid is a tale whose underlying archetype has enthralled audiences of all ages: the abandoned child found in the wilderness. But unlike his more privileged mythological predecessors, who at least had the good fortune to be deposited in lush, natural surroundings, Chaplin's cast-off child is discovered among, the ignoble detritus of modern society. A garbage-strewn alley in the seedy Red Light District in Los Angeles' Chinatown of the 1920s serves as the shooting location, re-creating a mean street from Chaplin's feral boyhood in the slums of South London. ...
- Taking one glance at that miserable child, streetwise Charlie instinctively looks up as if to quiz both the refuse-throwing householders and the heavens above as to just exactly where this baby has come from. But before he can even begin to explore that question, a rapid-fire series of comic interactions with a neighborhood cop firmly establishes Charlie's predicament of mistaken paternal identity: like it or not, once he demonstrates his better nature by resisting his impulse to toss the unwanted baby down the nearest sewer, the kid is his for life. What follows is a series of picaresque father-son adventures for this flotsam pair of castoffs from the Industrial Revolution in this comedy that Chaplin introduces in his opening title card as " a picture with a smile-perhaps a tear. ...
- But what is so startling about Chaplin's comedy of fathering a lost baby is the fact that he first conceived and immediately began to shoot this film barely two weeks after the death of his own three-day-old, firstborn infant son. ...
- By chancing upon a universal form-the myth of the lost child-to express his bereavement, Chaplin succeeds in inviting the whole gang in. Chinese peasants, Bantu tribesmen, European intellectuals, Cockney tradesmen, and all the "kids" of the world can and do receive Charlie's pantomime tale with empathy. ...
- But to say that grief-stricken Chaplin accidentally stumbled on the lost kid myth is to suggest a fluky happenstance that is clearly the counterpart of his Little Tramp's nimblest pratfalls. If ballet is in Charlie's bones, the schmaltzy nostalgia of bittersweet loss already was in Chaplin's soul-long before his bereavement over his firstborn child. Periodically left to fend for himself by his own alcoholic father and psychotic mother, Charlie already knew what being an abandoned kid was all about-living on the streets, dodging the bobbies and orphanage authorities, scavenging to survive. ...
- While losing his son undoubtedly reawakened those old boyhood memories, their artistic rendering took place with Charlie's heart, not his head. ...
- A few days after his personal tragedy, tough-minded Cockney Charlie, the professional actor who had clawed his way out of the slums, zipped up his pain and got on with it. ... Just as Oedipus and Laius--father and son--encounter each other by chance at one of life's crossroads, so Charlie the fatherless kid and Chaplin the childless father accidentally meet in a London lane. Unlike their ancient predecessors, whose hearts are filled with mistrust and hate, Charlie Chaplin and the lost child are filled with yearning and affection. ...

- Charles Spencer Chaplin, the “genius” (Secondary Uranus) of the silent screen, was born in Kennington, London, and raised in conditions of great poverty and deprivation, especially after the death of his father. ... Karno’s troupe arrived in the United States in 1910 with Chaplin “playing the lead” (Primary Sun) in the pantomime, A Night in an English Music Hall. Mack Sennett, the American director and producer of Keystone comedy fame, recognized Chaplin’s special talent and offered him work in California with the Keystone Company. ...
- During his first year in Hollywood in 1914, Chaplin made thirty-five films and developed what would become the classic bowler-donning, cane-spinning tramp of “world renown” (Primary Sun). ... Griffith, Mary Pickford, and Douglas Fairbanks, Chaplin created United Artists (1919). Chaplin’s “dramatic talent” (Primary Sun) and “inspired vision” (Secondary Uranus) resulted in cinematic works of “brilliance” (Uranus) such as The Kid (1920), The Gold Rush (1924), and City Lights (1931).
- Chaplin’s Primary Sun and Secondary Uranus form a Transcendental Midpoint-Field over the North Atlantic region, at some distance west of England. ... Chaplin’s Secondary Uranus runs parallel to the California coastline in its vertical midnight position, forming a narrow Secondary Uranus / Primary Sun Transcendental Midpoint-Field over the entire Hollywood / West Coast region.
- The themes traditionally associated with Chaplin’s key Transcendentals reflect some of the most notable traits of this great silent-film innovator. Primary Sun’s “dramatic self-expression” combined with Secondary Uranus’s “innovative experimentation” to create “a new form / of creative dramatization” (Uranus / Sun) in Chaplin’s work. ... ”3 Primary Sun may also place a native in the “limelight” or public eye, even resulting in the kind of widespread, “legendary acclaim” that Chaplin was noted for.
- Secondary Uranus also symbolizes the “innovative genius,” “flashes of intuitive brilliance,” and “skillful use of comedic timing” for which Chaplin was renowned. ... ” Applied to the creative realm, Uranus provides the creative “spark” illuminating, for example, the “new developments” in “dramatic self-expression” (Uranus / Sun) that led to Chaplin’s fame. ... Chaplin’s use of the “dramatic medium / in ways never before imagined” is just one example of the “visionary creation and expression of self” symbolized by this Sun / Uranus Transcendental pairing.

- Charlie Chaplin Marathon (1914-1917), black & white, 133 minutes total, not rated.
- For the money, LaserLight's Charlie Chaplin Marathon DVD compilation is both a hit and a miss.
- Keystone Film Corporation produced the world's first feature-length comedy motion picture in 1914 with Tillie's Punctured Romance, starring Marie Dressler, Charles Chaplin and Mabel Normand. ... Tillie, a simple farm girl, is enticed to run away to the city with her father's money by Charlie, a city slicker. In the city, Tillie's money is taken by Charlie until he reads of her impending inheritance of her uncle's three-million dollar estate.
- On the other hand, the other Chaplin shorts on this disc are a hit (for the money). Three short comedies that Chaplin made under his Mutual Film Corporation contract have been chosen to fill out this disc. ...
- The inclusion of these three films gives the viewer a good slice of what Chaplin's creative progress was during his Mutual years. The Vagabond amplifies story themes that Chaplin had discovered in 1915, during his Essanay contract years. ... The Rink represents a nod to Chaplin's vaudeville and Keystone past, being inventive and funny slapstick throughout. But, what is going on with Edna's party hairstyle? And, it is well known that in the story of The Immigrant Chaplin finally coalesced his comedic and poetic tendencies. The result is a funny and heart-warming mix that is a precursor to Chaplin's masterpiece, City Lights (1931).

- Chalie Chaplin as " the Tramp" in 1922.
- As counterpoint to the whimsy of the Little Tramp, Chaplin served as his own financer and studio owner in charge of not only his filmmaking, but marketing and distribution. The unlikely combination of business skill and creative vision, in many ways, made Chaplin the forbearer of the creative Hollywood producer. Chaplin identifies both sides of his personality as a product of his childhood.
- " Chaplin's acting ability, far more expansive than the slapstick that made him a household name, was venerated by the illustrious John Barrymore in a well-known, albeit undocumented, Hollywood anecdote.

47. Charlie Chaplin's Biography
- math.gc.cuny.edu
- Charlie Chaplin.
- Charles Spencer Chaplin was born to British music-hall entertainers who had skirted around the edges of prosperity without ever achieving it. ... Chaplin's father died a hopeless alcoholic, and his mother's increasingly fragile health and tenuous mental state forced him and older half-brother Sydney to work for their suppers. ...
- While touring with Karno in America in 1912, Chaplin-whose comic drunk was the highlight of the troupe's show-was seen by Mack Sennett, the godfather of movie comedy, who hired him away to appear in moving pictures. ... Kid Auto Races at Venice (also 1914) saw him wearing a derby hat and droopy trousers, and brandishing a cane; it was the first appearance of what would come to be known as "the Little Tramp," a character Chaplin continued to refine in his short-subject appearances during a year-long tenure with Sennett's Keystone company.
- Already a familiar face to moviegoers, and an increasingly valuable property to Sennett, Chaplin felt he was worth more than the $175 a week he was getting paid, and in 1915 signed with Essanay (another pioneering film company) for $1,250 a week with bonuses. ... It was The Tramp (1915) that gave audiences their first glimpse of a Chaplin trademark: the final shot of the little fellow, alone, shuffling away from the camera down a long, barren stretch of road.
- In 1916 Chaplin moved operations to Mutual. ... Easy Street, The Rink, The Cure and The Immigrant are just a few of the brilliant comedies Chaplin made during his stay at Mutual in 1916-17.
- As well compensated as he was, though, Chaplin longed for the total freedom and security of his own company. ... When Chaplin's contract with First National ran out, he made films exclusively for UA distribution, never again returning to the shackles of a studio contract.
- He directed his first United Artists release, the sophisticated A Woman of Paris (1923), which starred his former leading lady Edna Purviance and Adolphe Menjou; Chaplin himself took only a brief cameo. The film flopped badly, and a chastened Chaplin returned to the security of his Little Tramp for The Gold Rush (1925), one of his enduring masterpieces, still an often-revived favorite from the silent era. It exuded the great attention to detail, both in setting and performance, that would become a Chaplin hallmark even as it reduced his output. ...
- Chaplin had by this time already been the recipient of unwanted controversy. ...
- In 1928, the talking-picture revolution threw the entire movie industry into turmoil, but Chaplin dealt with sound in his own unique way: He simply ignored it. ... City Lights (1931), his next and arguably greatest picture, made certain concessions: It sported a fully orchestrated musical score-composed, for the most part, by Chaplin himself-and used sound effects sparingly, and to clever effect. ...
