Is any actor more closely entwined with his character than Charles Chaplin? From his second screen appearance, Chaplin simply was The Little Tramp—bowler hat and cane, baggy pants, compact mustache, and a smile beneath the tears. He perfected the character through dozens of movies over 22 years and was recognized across the globe. In his heyday, Chaplin felt the need to append a disclaimer to his 1923 drama A WOMAN OF PARIS clarifying that he did not appear in the film “to avoid any misunderstanding.” On the occasion of a new 4K restoration of A WOMAN OF PARIS, we present a series of films where Chaplin explored characters beyond his iconic Tramp persona, including two films he made in England after losing political favor in America.
