"One of the loveliest screen experiences! Perhaps the quintessential Chaplin film!"
-Vincent Canby, The New York Times
Synopsis courtesy MK2 & Warner Bros.:
When we first meet Chaplin's Tramp in this comic gem, he's in typical straits: broke, hungry, destined to fall in love and just as sure to lose the girl. Mistaken for a pickpocket and pursued by a peace officer into a circus tent, the Tramp becomes a star when delighted patrons think his escape from John Law is an act.
At the first-ever Academy Awards ceremony, Charles Chaplin was honored with a special statuette "for versatility and genius in writing, acting, directing and producing The Circus." And, it went without saying, for again bringing laughter to packed movie palaces across America.
