In this expressive masterwork of silent cinema, Chaplin stars as his lovable Tramp character, this time raising an orphan (a remarkable young Jackie Coogan) he has rescued from the streets. – Janus FilmsTHE KID • 1921 • dir Charles Chaplin w/Chaplin, Jackie Coogan • 53 min • 35mm
Chaplin’s Tramp is the spitting image of a drunken and absent-minded, but wealthy man. When they find themselves both in the same resort town, hijinks ensue.
THE IDLE CLASS • 1921 • dir Charles Chaplin w/Chaplin • 32 min • 35mm
In collaboration with our friends at the American Repertory Theatre and in celebration of their new musical production, Gatsby (opening May 23!), we’re excited to present this special film series. “Fitzgerald and the Jazz Age” examines F. Scott Fitzgerald as an author and screenwriter as well as exploring the real world that the characters in his works inhabited. From modern depictions of the Jazz Age like Damien Chazelle’s BABYLON to famous films from the period like Chaplin’s THE KID to Fitzgerald’s only fully realized and credited screenplay (the stirring THREE COMRADES) these screenings offer an opportunity to enter the world of Gatsby before you see it come to life on the stage!
